More than two dozen alleged looters in Los Angeles didn’t appear to make much effort to conceal themselves. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has released photos of no fewer than 27 people they say swarmed an Auto Zone on two consecutive nights earlier this month during “street takeovers,” reports the Los Angeles Times. The department released two separate bulletins, here and here, with the images after what it called “coordinated, mob-like” burglaries, per KTLA.
In the first incident, a person in a “Wild One” skull hoodie allegedly smashed the front doors around 2:22am on Aug. 8, with about 10 others then rushing in, say deputies. Roughly 24 hours later, another group—16 of whom are featured in new images—did the same, possibly overlapping with the first crew. Video shows people hauling off merchandise. The department has two numbers for tipsters: (323) 264-4151 or (800) 222-TIPS (8477).
