Caught on video: Huge crowd leaving illegal sideshow ransacks nearby 7-Eleven in Harbor-Gateway
CBS ^ | 8/19/22

Dozens of people who were part of a street takeover also looted a 7-Eleven convenience store in Harbor-Gateway, and police are asking for help identifying some involved.

"I live in the apartment next door," said neighbor Lisa Trafton. "I was ready to go to sleep. All of a sudden I heard a bunch of notice. Cars doing donuts."

Police had just broken up an illegal sideshow at the corner of Figueroa Street and El Segundo Boulevard when they discovered a large crowd of those spectators had looted a nearby 7-Eleven. Only one employee was working at the store during the rush, but that person was not hurt.

"Cars were just going everywhere," said neighbor Lisa Trafton. "And then I looked into the store because I wanted to get a pop and the store's totally trashed."

Security video released by the LAPD shows dozens of people streaming into the store. At first, many people appeared to be simply shopping for snacks, but suddenly others started running in, ransacking shelves and jumping the counter to grab items behind the register. Candy, chips, and drinks were left strewn all over the store, and a cash register was destroyed, but it's not clear if any money was taken. "Angry mob mentality inside the store," said Det. Ryan Moreno. "They started ransacking the place, taking food, cigarettes, lottery tickets — tried to get the cashier's box."

Investigators asked residents to help police find a man seen wearing a Colorado Rockies cap and a Backwoods Jersey.

"This guy started grabbing food and chips and started throwing bananas at the worker who's basically hiding in the back," said Moreno.

Yesterday’s important story on mobs going unpunished.

Thank goodness this is repeated and they have video.
Moronic lowlifes (Dems) may see this on TV and know what their America looks like-—the fundamental transformation Obama said he wanted where minorities are not rushed to jail cells.

So glad this made it to the mainstream LA news.

7-Eleven stores are very popular in Japan. Oddly they don’t get ransacked there. Wonder why that is.

The video shows Blacks and plenty of Mexican "guests". I'm telling you, a multi-hued tapistry of dark colors.
