02:00am, Monday, 13'th Dec 2021 Zero Hedge
Smash And Grab Thieves Steal Millions In Jewelry From Rolls Royce Dealership Thieves are becoming more brazen as they begin to target luxury shops. The latest incident was a smash and grab robbery at a Rolls Royce dealership in Chicago''s Gold Coast neighborhood, according to CBS Chicago . On Saturday afternoon, two men, one armed with a handgun, raided the exotic car dealership. One thief used a hammer to break the display cases open and fill bags with expensive watches and other jewelry pieces. In about 30 seconds, the men made off with over $2 million worth of jewelry, according to Joe Perillo, the dealership owner, who spoke with CBS Chicago. "A city that I love and everybody loves to come to is going to be a desert if they don''t stop this. We''re going to have people moving out of this city they''re moving out now that want to just be safe," said Perillo. "They''re walking into my business, crashing the windows. And one guy stands with a gun. And we have to have this happen. Enough is enough," he said.

Being displayed in museums and staying in the streets: that is true glory, Sophie Fontanel wrote on Giorgio Armani.

Shellenberger: Why Looting Turned San Francisco Into A Ghost Town
04:00am, Friday, 10'th Dec 2021 Zero Hedge
Shellenberger: Why Looting Turned San Francisco Into A Ghost Town Authored by Michael Shellenberger via Substack, Usually at this time of year, San Franciscos luxury stores are decked with holiday garlands. Instead, theyre boarded up after widespread flash mob looting turned Union Square the citys most fashionable shopping district into an area resembling a blighted neighborhood in Detroit. Its a ghost town, said Michelle Tandler, a San Francisco native and high-tech entrepreneur, whose photos of the stores barricaded in plywood went viral on social media this week. Every store has a security guard. People are going to lose their jobs. And these things have a ripple effect. Two weeks ago, San Francisco was the first of several progressive cities hit by smash-and-grab mobs of thieves, sometimes as many as 80 in a group. Video from the San Francisco looting of Louis Vuitton shows criminals walking casually out of the store, goods in hand. Other cities hit include Los Angeles, Chicago and Minneapolis. This is traumatizing for our associates and is unacceptable, said Best Buy CEO Corie Barry four days before yet another outlet was ransacked on Black Friday in a Minnesota mall. We are doing everything we can to try to create as safe as possible environment. These viral photos of boarded-up boutiques in San Francisco''s upscale Union Square district this week are a bleak encapsulation of the city''s approach to crime.

Safeway Redesigns San Francisco Store To Prevent ''Flash Mob'' Robberies
02:20am, Thursday, 09'th Dec 2021 Zero Hedge
Safeway Redesigns San Francisco Store To Prevent ''Flash Mob'' Robberies A Safeway grocery store in San Francisco, California, has redesigned the front end of its store to mitigate shoplifting and smash and grab mobs. "This Safeway is getting weirder and weirder," one shopper told San Francisco Chronicle who walked through a newly installed electronic gate at the entrance of the store. The gates allow customers to enter the store but prevent looters from running out with a cart full of stolen items. Barriers were added throughout the checkout area, directing customers leaving the store into a single file line. Unused checkout aisles were blocked with large physical barriers. The store''s side entrance was blocked by a new display of heavy plastic water bottles. "Like other local businesses, we are working on ways to curtail escalating theft to ensure the wellbeing of our employees and to foster a welcoming environment for our customers. Their safety remains our top priority," Wendy Gutshall, director of public and government affairs for Safeway''s Northern California Division, said in an emailed statement. "These long-planned security improvements were implemented with those goals in mind," Gutshall said.

Security Heightened At Major Store Chains After Series Of ''Flash Mob'' Robberies
12:00am, Tuesday, 07'th Dec 2021 Zero Hedge
Security Heightened At Major Store Chains After Series Of ''Flash Mob'' Robberies Authored by Bryan Jung via The Epoch Times, Security is being boosted in retail outlets across the country this holiday shopping season, as stores and law enforcement face a pandemic of organized retail crime by smash and grab mobs. Major stores like Home Depot, CVS, Target, and Best Buy have been some of the worse afflicted by the “flash mob” raids, which have increased in scope and in size in recent weeks. Stores in California, Illinois, and Minnesota have been repeatedly attacked in the last few weeks, with the Bay Area being hit hard in particular. At the end of November , a well-coordinated gang, raided a San Francisco-area Nordstrom, stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of items. Bystanders watched helplessly as dozens of looters in cars drove up to the store and overwhelmed the staff, ransacking shelves and terrorizing customers before driving away, with police making only a handful of arrests.
