Dark Times indeed-Flash Mob robs Glendale CA store of $300,000 in goods

Remember folks, these are the same people that woke people on this board (we know who they are) will defend and call you racist for criticizing. At least 30 people wearing full Covid Hazmat Gear went into a high end store at the Glendale Americana (I've been there many times-nice place) and sampled some clothing but forgot to pay when walking out with it.

Don't let the wokes on here shame you for calling this exactly what it is. A hit job on American values by animals. Let them call you racist.

Call them clowns and people who want the destruction of this country all so they can pose for pictures with black people to give them feeelzzz.

Video shows suspects steal $300,000 worth of designer goods in 'flash mob burglary'

Updated Thu, August 10, 2023 at 7:17 PM PDT

A high-end designer store in Glendale, California was looted by dozens of people in a flash mob burglary on Tuesday, Glendale Police said.

At least 30 suspects "flooded" the Yves Saint Laurent store in The Americana at Brand Tuesday afternoon and stole clothing and other merchandise before fleeing on foot and leaving the location in numerous vehicles, said police in a statement. An investigation into the incident is underway. The total loss is estimated to be approximately $300,000.

The Americana is a major indoor-outdoor hub in Glendale adjacent to Northeast and Downtown Los Angeles.

Video footage from the incident, captured by onlookers, shows dozens of masked individuals running out of the store with merchandise and other goods in their arms.
What is a 'flash mob' burglary?

"'Flash mob' burglaries involve a large, coordinated group of individuals simultaneously rushing into the store, overwhelming staff, and taking it over," explained the police, adding that suspects grab as much merchandise as they can before escaping in multiple vehicles.

“This type of criminal activity will not be tolerated in Glendale," said Glendale Police Chief Manuel Cid in a statement, promising that the department will "pursue all leads and utilize every available resource to apprehend those responsible and bring them to justice."

Expect an elevated police presence in and around the downtown Glendale corridor, Cid added.

Caruso, the real estate company that owns The Americana at Brand is offering a reward of up to $50,000 for leads on the incident and suspects.


Glendale Mayor Dan Brotman also expressed concern over the event saying that “this coordinated crime challenges our values, but our determination to uphold safety and unity is resolute."

Anyone with information should contact the Glendale Police Department or the L.A. Regional Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous.
Retailers concerned over organized theft

Meanwhile, retailers like Target, Walmart, Dollar General and Home Depot have expressed concern and are sounding the alarm on retail theft in recent months. Missing inventory was discussed more this past quarter than any quarter on record, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

Retailers have been increasingly concerned about a loss of profits because of shrinkage – an industry term that refers to the difference between the inventory a store has on its balance sheet and its actual inventory.

Target CEO Brian Cornell shared that shrinkage can be driven by multiple factors. The term includes everything from items lost or damaged items to theft by employees or visitors. He and other executives have sounded the alarm over a rise in organized retail theft in which thieves steal merchandise to resell for a profit, often online through sites like Amazon or eBay.

To combat such incidents, retailers are introducing strategies like shorter store hours, self-servicing locking cabinets or smart shopping carts. However, there is also a worry that such measures will impact customer service and hurt sales. Some retailers have also been pushing for stricter penalties for stealing to curb retail theft.

However, before any strong conclusions can be drawn about the impact of retail theft on profit, more needs to be learned by greater data gathering and analysis.

High end stores should limit their inventory to 1 unit and keep it in the back. Put fake stuff out on display. Actually jk idgaf. Lib cucks

Please refer to these fine people using the correct gender. We need to spend at least 6 months studying this behavior because we believe that race and discrimination has played a big part in their decision making. We call on Kamala, our leader, to study the root cause of this behavior.

If I ran a store today, I would it be digital. You could scan items you want in store, or buy online and then pickup.

I saw another thread with black mobs robbing several luxury stores. I think this is a trend

here's the thread. They robbed Gucci and another store (in addition to the one in OP)

that is what confused me the most on this - I've never seen a high end store with more than ten people in it at any given time - and when they do hold sales they limit the number of customers in at one time.

Seems like a common occurrence in California, since they basically legalized property theft.

Our expensive stores have "night club poles" out front and a limit of people allowed in a store at 1 time.
5-10 people.
DC area
A line forms outside of front of the store

I agree. I bought my wife a new LV Pursue online and picked up in store.

I’d keep the doors locked and be buzzed in. ID scanned at door.

They are so out of control, you cant even have basic stores anymore. Consider the fact that posters here are talking about having to buzz people into stores or only having digital orders to deal with them. This is the state of your communities and societies with them living in it. None of that is remotely normal or should be required. Not even poor countries in Asia or Eastern Europe have to resort to this.

This is what you get when you live with blacks though and you are soft on crime. No matter where you go in the world, its always the same with them too. They are a never ending crime wave.

This is not a few individuals either, these are organized, coordinated groups numbering in the hundreds. Its racist for noticing though and racist for complaining.

Segregation is the only option. There is no value in all in trying to pretend that they are ever going to be functional on a large scale.

I have been to the Americana there many times and it is a very family/kid friendly, mainly white/Asian shopping mall. Outdoors with lots of nice stores and restaurants. A big skating rink, Christmas festival area and Christmas train in the winter. One of the few places in Los Angeles that is still somewhat safe and nice.

It is very non ghetto.

So the fact that these hoodrats chose this place is really a slap in the face to what is still good in America.

Interesting how this all happens in cities/states, where they would get nothing but a slap on the wrist if they were caught......

Keep up with the excuses though Benny, we all can use a good laugh.

I am not the loyalist(D) that you have created in your fictional creative writing mind.
I *told you this over 5 years ago*, but you can't always tell "people" things....... when their mind is already made up(you).
Case by case basis, like i said years..... ago.

i don't defend "parties" i defend ideas which i feel strongly about, huge difference if you can understand it.
