Remember from CNN "there is nothing more frightening in America today than an angry white man" Tell that to the retailers in San Francisco and Chicago. I bet they'd disagree. Maybe tell that to the parade goers in Waukesha Wi.
In a shockingly brazen display, looters in San Francisco conducted a “smash and grab” at the Louis Vuitton store in Union Square on Saturday, carrying off tens of thousands of dollars in merchandise.
Just two days ago, a similar “smash and grab” robbery occurred at the Louis Vuitton store in the Chicago suburb of Oakbrook, Illinois.
In the Oak Brook robbery, police determined that 14 suspects ran into the store, grabbed armfuls of merchandise, and then ran out the door and got into three vehicles. The robbery occurred at 3:30 in the afternoon.
In San Francisco, police report that other retailers in Union Square suffered similar attacks.
KTVU:
“We are continuing to respond to other retail establishments where reports of vandalism has occurred,” said Rueca. “Additional officers are responding to the area and are mobilizing to address the fluid and evolving situation.”
A KTVU camera crew said Fendi and Yves Saint Laurent were among the affected retailers.
The incident at the high-end store located at Geary Boulevard and Stockton was first documented on Twitter at around 8:25 p.m. User @Yealenne posted video that shows the immediate aftermath of the theft with shattered windows on the store’s ground and San Francisco police officers who responded to the scene.
Some of the high-end retail shops that were hit, included Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Burberry, Dolce & Gabbana.
