- as one raider is apprehended after LIVESTREAMING herself stealing from smashed up stores Thieves in the city of Philadelphia have been ransacking stores in the city center including Apple, Lululemon and Footlocker Videos shared on social media show officers apprehending looters as they attempt to leave with merchandise Footage from the Apple store shows the aftermath of the looting, with iPhones and other electronic goods seemingly ripped from their display stands

About twenty people have been arrested after widespread looting broke out in Philadelphia last night, with one woman who livestreamed the chaos.

Police in the city said that a large group of around 100 juveniles kept moving from store to store and looting them.

Videos shared on social media show officers attempting to grab thieves, some of whom are wearing Halloween masks, as they run riot through a Lululemon store.

One officer manages to hit one of the looters with a punch after managing to tackle them to the ground, in social media footage.

The incident happened on Walnut Street in the heart of the city center and also involved a nearby Foot Locker and Apple store.

Police in the city said that they had so far made between 15 to 20 arrests and recovered two firearms from the scenes.

Footage shows bikes and piles of merchandise piled up on the sidewalk outside of the Lululemon branch as officers arrived on the scene and started making arrests.

Looters who hit multiple stores also targeted the Apple Store. They were there for the iPhone 15 Pro Max and a whole lot more in Philadelphia.

Helter Skelter a few years late.

Ghetto culture has become the mainstream culture and things are going to get a lot worse before they get better

And no consequences either.

“America has been Ghettoized.”
Any time you see a black person, grab your gun.
Sorry it has come to this, but they don’t belong
in our society.

Are ‘juveniles’ more mischievous than ‘teens’or is it the other way around?

The media are so utterly predictable when reporting about certain subjects.
They have to cushion EVERYTHING to favor their agendas.

Animals, and dumb ones at that. Those Apple phones at worst will be locked and unusable. At best cops will use the tracking feature to locate said phone and animals that took it.

You know those big fire department trucks that can spray large amounts of water and/or foam? Wouldn’t it be great if we could load up many of those trucks with bear spray. Just cover all the criminals in gallons of the stuff. As they writhe on the ground, just chain them all together. Once they settle down, put them in an outdoor tent jail with bologna sandwiches.

I have an idea, Guards with shot guns at these high end stores, with an open license to shoot looters. Have cameras on and if your looting your dying . That would stop this sh!t real fast!

“These police were not equipped for this at all.”

They need to be using pepper spray, tasers liberally, bean bag rounds. While one of them is filming all of this to protect themselves and the city legally.

Police should not be forced to combat these looter scum youths physically and get injured.

I'll bet you that none of the police officers who actually physically engaged with the looters was female!

Too bad Philly doesn’t have a legal system that would actually punish these people.
