A FedEx tractor-trailer was blocked by several cars in a Memphis, Tennessee, intersection before dozens of people pillaged the back of the truck for packages, leaving boxes discarded all over the road during the brazen weekend theft.

Video from the scene shows multiple people running through parked cars in the road toward the FedEx truck as the driver attempts to escape the ravagers who are carrying their loot.

Multiple men allegedly used an unknown tool to open the safety latch on the truck’s sealed back doors and took numerous packages, the driver said, according to multiple local reports.

When police officers arrived, multiple vehicles were seen recklessly speeding away Saturday night, the Memphis Police Department said, according to Fox13 Memphis.

I live in Midtown Memphis. Pump shotguns with alternating loads of #4 birdshot and #00 buckshot are within reach throughout the house. I’ve never seen it this bad.

“locked by several cars...dozens of people pillaged”

The police pension fund could be enriched by the sale of those cars.

Stores have closed or will close in cities. That makes people to have items shipped to them. Once it becomes too dangerous to deliver goods, their will be very little left. It will be interesting to see what happens when food is no longer delivered.

Yep. Stores are closing because of massive shoplifting. So the next logical target for the mob will be home delivery trucks.

It will get interesting when they start to target USPS trucks. That’s a federal crime, and the postal inspectors will get involved…unless they too are ordered to stand down.

I didn’t see your post before I posted my #29. We see the same fundamental problem eating away at our society. And its one that is nearly impossible to reverse.
