"BALTIMORE (WJZ)– We get the first look at the video of the flash mob robbery at a 7-Eleven in downtown Baltimore with
scores of young people rushing the store.
May 23: The 7-Eleven on Light Street. Surveillance cameras record as
groups of teens walk to the back of the store for a free Slurpee giveaway. But soon, the cameras catch them as dozens begin to steal and pocket items off the shelves.
When store employees in the red shirts realize what’s happening, they block the doors to stop the
young thieves from leaving.
But
the kids physically struggle to get out and even appear to hit the store manager who then swings back. After the brief altercation,
many kids dash out the door.
