The looters are already getting busy in Fort Lauderdale...

[The Tradition]

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - Fort Lauderdale police arrested 9 people caught by Local 10 cameras looting Fort Lauderdale business despite the dangerous winds and heavy rain from Hurricane Irma

Local 10 cameras caught a group breaking into the Simon's Sportswear on Sunrise Blvd. and Powerline Road.

The group of about 8-9 people broke through the front window and were seen walking in and then walking out with stolen items.

The group then began looting a Footlocker and CashAmerica Pawn Store in the same area.

Hours later, the Fort Lauderdale Police Department tweeted that they had caught the criminals.

"Going to prison over a pair of sneakers is a fairly bad life choice," said Fort Lauderdale police chief Rick Maglione. "Stay home and look after your loved once and be thankful they are all safe."

The Broward Sheriff's Office immediately reacted to Local 10's report, tweeting "ATTENTION LOOTERS; Every incident will be investigated. Evidence collected will be used to pursue charges after the fact."

Meanwhile, the Pembroke Pines Police Department issued a stern warning, tweeting "Any looters who come to Pembroke Pines will be greeted by our officers. Choose wisely and stay home."

South Florida law enforcement officials promised to police the streets to prevent looting, but with unsafe winds currently pummeling the region, it's not known if units are currently on patrol.

Shoes? Amateurs.
Start a managed care hospital and steal from Medicare if you want to make it big in Florida.

I'd steal more expensive stuff. During one of the Baltimore riots, they had a lady stealing toilet paper. Now that's not a hill to die on.

She had probably previously looted (and eaten) Trads unrefrigerated deviled eggs.

Didn't know they were into antfarming?

 

[mnole03]

Someone looted the off-road accessories shop.

 

[UNIowaHawk]

People who steal during times like these are scum. Should be shot, not arrested.

Joking right?

Ever been to Florida?

Stereotypes exist for a reason.

 

[volknut]

So does BLM stand for "Black Looters Matter"?

 

[markfromj]

Stereotypes exist for a reason.

True. They exist because simpletons need simple explanations for complex cases.

 

[WisestIowan]

We were told to shoot first here in Houston.

If it is All food in that bag, then they found some survival. Taking stereo speakers,electronics,skis,sneakers, etc is hardly for "survival".
Doesn't matter what color you are.

Well, the caption said "grocery store" and that was clearly a 12 pack of soft drinks, so I'd say its safe to assume survival.

Yes, bc people stealing shoes during a hurricane is an ultra complex situation... pathetic.

I don't care who you are, that's a great headline.

 

[volknut]

Those shoes, tv's, etc were oppressed and needed to be freed!

 

[hexumhawk]

True. They exist because simpletons need simple explanations for complex cases.

And then people defend scumbags to the death...over and over and over.....

 

[markfromj]

Yes, bc people stealing shoes during a hurricane is an ultra complex situation... pathetic.

No. The simpleton view, though, is that the theft happened because the perp was black.

Wouldn't this only hold water (no pun intended) if both articles were from the AP, not one from the AP and the other from an imaging provider anyone can create a description for?

 

[Gimmered]

Yup, no racist problem here.

I'm sorry, but a legitimate observation is not racism.
