Looters ransack UPS truck after viaduct collision on Chicago's Southwest Side
Fox 32 Chicago ^ | 9/5/24 | Kasey Chronis

CHICAGO - A group of at least a dozen people looted a UPS tractor-trailer on Chicago's Southwest Side Thursday morning following a crash.

At 10:46 a.m. in the 2100 block of South Kedzie Avenue in the city’s Little Village neighborhood, the truck’s roof was torn off while attempting to drive underneath a viaduct.

The slight miscalculation was only the first in a series of bizarre events that unfolded.

As the truck was traveling northbound on Kedzie Avenue, just past Cermak Road, the truck driver struck the viaduct.

SkyFOX captured stunning video of its roof peeled off like a tin can.

The truck was relocated near the CTA’s Pink Line station at 21st and Kedzie. While it was parked on the street, police said a group of 12 to 15 people took the opportunity to remove packages from the damaged vehicle.

Citizen app video shows the mound of boxes spilling from the trailer.

Evidence that what I’ve stated before is true: we don’t have a gun problem; we have a behavior problem.

That area around little village and North Lawndale probably is about 70% hispanic, and 15% black.

This is straight out of the TV show “Shameless”. About a family/friends/neighbors on the south side of Chicago.

There was a episode where a guy with a box truck of meat broke down. He left to make phone call. He asked a couple of Yutes to keep and eye on his truck. As soon as he left they called all their friends. The meat truck was empty within minutes.

America is transforming into a Third World nation. This is the transformation Obama was talking about.

Or, we don't have a race problem, we have a problem race.

If it was legal to shoot people stealing from you, this behavior would stop after a few hundred people were maimed.
