PORTLAND, Ore. -- Police are investigating another flash mob theft by a group of teens, this time at Nordstrom at the Lloyd Center.
Last week, a group of 16 teens converged on a Southeast Portland convenience store and stole merchandise and then ran out. Police are still investigating the incident.
Friday's incident happened just after 8 p.m. Police interviewed employees of the store who said a group of approximately 10 African-American male teenagers were in the store and began taking items and putting them in bags before they ran out the southwest doors of the store toward Northeast 9th Avenue.
Police who checked the area recovered some of the stolen clothing, but did not find the teens, who are ages 13-19 years old and all wearing hats and hoodies with their faces covered.
Cherise Vanhooser, who works at Lloyd Center, wasn't surprised at the incident.
"Kids steal all the time at the Lloyd center," she said. "I mean, I'm constantly dealing with it at work. I know a lot of the other managers are. It's just a constant problem. You always have to have someone on the floor because you can't trust anybody."
Police said they will work with Nordstrom officials to get surveillance video to help their investigation.
Anyone with information about this theft should email information to Portland Police.
second such mob of same type of people in two day in Portland area. First was a convenience store.
Ah yes, function of the community organizers to train the stupid Holder people to come to riot upon call. The trainign sessions need to be listed so in October the complete list of training cities and dates can be issued to the BBC (no domestic propaganda outlet would dare expose the truth of the commie thugs training these fools to be cannon fodder for the ‘black revolution) and other alternate presses. Is some freeper keeping a list of these training sessions?
My dad gave my brother and me the exact same talk and when my brother got arrested he didn’t call. My folks drove by my brothers truck parked on the side of the highway and figured he was in jail - sure enough he was. I just never bothered to get in trouble.
Nordstrom's = Corporation
Corporations = 'Da Man
Supreme Court = Corporations are People
Flash Mob Loots Corporation = Hate Crime
Look for the next thing to be a guy standing by the door demanding people with hoodies take the hoods down and stare directly into the video camera (which will also take retina prints.
It's called "Congress."
That’s one reason they use the Mother F’in word a lot. They think you may be their daddy. Could be anybody. But I know they are not mine. If I were their daddy, they wouldn’t be so ugly. But then again, what cornere was their mother working?
All joking aside, it was the start of “teenagers” having an identity separate from children or adults and having time on their hands rather than having to work to support the family. Obviously greasers wouldn’t have behaved in such a shameful way, but I believe today’s yutes are a direct result of the rise of “teenagers” and removing God from our society.
Sounds familliar! We bent the heck out of some of the rules, but nothing that would get us in jail (at the time).
It’s just a matter of time before a teen flash mob attempts to steal from the wrong business owner.
Eventually, some fed up entrepreneur is going to let the mob gather in his business, turn off the surveillance cameras, bar the doors, bring out his guns, go to work on the crowd and then let the chips fall where they may.
Think of Bernie Goetz on Steroids.
By the end of my senior year I had read every book in the library that interested me. We had a track-mounted nun in there who enforced a code of silence which would have made the Mafia proud, so even dozing in the corner wouldn’t have been an option...
That works for me.
Yes, Elvis started all this with his swiveling hips!
At least the thieves are getting smarter...stealing from Nordstroms than the corner C-store...
I hate to laugh at that but there, but for the grace of God, [and fear of jail] go I...LOL
They call it a ‘teen flash mob”! If the kids were white you can bet your house the headline would be “White flash mob”!
The biblical admonition of ‘raise up a child int he way that they should go and when they are old they will not depart from it’ tells us these thieves are being raised to be that way. Of course that also means the dying Republic will have to deal with another generation of such vermin when these get old enough to sire their own vermin ... unless a cleansing happens. Sadly, the grandmothers who used to raise the black children are no longer part of the household equations of these semi-civilized families. Affirmative action has generated exactly what the democrats designed it for, an angry, doltish voting block who are easily herded.
Mine too, for just a little while; then I’d have caught *real hell* when he got me home! LOL. The “good old days”, eh?
The boys brought their squirrel and deer rifles to school all the time.
Every truck had them in the racks.
Nobody ever shot anybody else.
Now they’ll lynch kids for using their fingers to say “Bang!” and yutes kill each other over ugly sneakers.
We’ve all gone to Crazyland.
Isn't that profiling?
Uh-oh, somebody didn't get the memo !
