Looting abounds in New Orleanshttp://www.billoreilly.com/show?action=viewTVShow&showID=433#3 Guest: Jeremy Olshan, New York Post & Lisa Carton, Fox News Radio
There has been rampant thievery in New Orleans, and New York Post reporter Jeremy Olshan was on hand as some residents went on a rampage. "I was far less concerned about the rising water level than the capability of the police to keep the place safe. You could feel it become scary, and it was clear the police had no control."
Fox News Radio correspondent Lisa Carton also witnessed chaos. "It was mayhem. Police told us they were releasing prisoners from the local jails and they could not protect us. We saw people running in and out of stores and taking things." The Factor urged federal authorities to re-take the streets. "We hear there are gangs roving the streets with AK-47s because gun stores were looted, and we hear reports that police have been looting. We need to get the National Guard there to get things under control."
