SAN FRANCISCO: High End Retail Stores Board Up Windows To Prevent Organized Looting Over Christmas Season | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 77067739 United States 12/01/2021 06:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | SAN FRANCISCO: High End Retail Stores Board Up Windows To Prevent Organized Looting Over Christmas Season (National File) Several retail stores in San Francisco are boarding up in prevention of smash-and-grab robberies that have plagued the bay area. At least six stores in San Francisco’s Union Square are now boarded up amidst the typically festive Christmas season, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Videos posted to social media depict organized smash-and-grab retail thefts committed by large groups have gone viral in recent months. These high profile videos include the robbery of a Union Square Louis Vuitton store that was “emptied out” on November 19, according to law enforcement officials. Theft of goods valued less than $1,000 is classified as a misdemeanor in California. Governor Gavin Newsom recently signed legislation that would elevate this to a felony, but only if the accused individual is part of an organized theft ring.
