A mob of looters was seen on video storming a 7-Eleven store in Sacramento, California, after an illegal street racing event nearby, authorities said on Friday.
Dozens of vandals in Northern California were caught on video looting a 7-Eleven convenience store earlier this month, authorities said Friday. The chaos unfolded on Oct. 8 at the store on Elkhorn Boulevard in Rio Linda, just outside of Sacramento, after a nearby sideshow, the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office said. A sideshow is an illegal street racing event where drivers perform dangerous stunts like 'donuts' and 'burnouts' on public streets.
Since the looting was nonviolent, most suspects will receive citations instead of jail time if they are caught, sheriff’s spokesperson Sgt. Amar Gandhi told KXTV. Cities in California, most notably Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay areas, have been plagued with smash-and-grab looters. Videos of the incidents have gone viral online and fueled critics who argue California takes too lax of an approach to crime.
Authorities asked anyone with information about the incident to contact the sheriff’s office at 874-5115 or the Sacramento Valley Crime Stoppers at 443-HELP .
