Over 25 Suspects set new Black Friday trend, loot a Minnesota Best Buy
A flash mob of over 25 suspects have set a new Black Friday trend by looting a Minnesota Best Buy, and escaping before Police responded.
The incident occurred at a Best Buy in Burnsville, a suburb just south of Minneapolis, according to WCCO-TV reporter Nick Streiff.
Police are still investigating on how much of the merchandise was stolen, and it is believed that no weapons were used in the 8PM theft.
The incident comes amid the growing trend of flash mob lootings sparked by the riots after George Floyd’s death. Many Democratic-led states are suffering from these lootings after they vowed to “defund,” “dismantle” the Police.
On November 03, Minneapolis had rejected the radical idea of replacing the Police Department with a so-called Department of Public Safety that would arrive on-scene to ask suspects if something’s troubling them in their lives, and whether they’d like some extra toppings on their stolen pizza.
The radical move was welcomed by Minneapolis Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, and Minnesota’s attorney general Keith Ellis.
Minneapolis residents however, finally spoke and chose to reinforce law enforcement instead of dismantling it and support criminals.
Police are now on the hunt for the suspects behind this looting.
