Florida looting Free For All
As Hurricane Irma lashed Florida with heavy winds and rain, TV stations captured groups of people breaking into stores.
Footage from WPLG Local 10 in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, shows multiple people breaking through the front window Simon's Sportswear, entering the store and walking out with various items.
According to WPLG Local 10, the looters had also broken into other stores in the nearby area, including Footlocker and CashAmerica Pawn Store.
The Fort Lauderdale police department later arrested 9 people related to the incident
Later, WSVN in Miami captured another incident of groups of people breaking into a shoe store and loading vehicles up with boxes of shoes.

Get to the punch line, what color are they? It's hard to see through all that hurricaning going on.
They're the red ones.
"They're the red ones."
"Get to the punch line, what color are they?"
Just look for poor people wearing brand new sport shoes
BF posts an article about looting and you and JWC are the only ones that mentioned the color of the suspects, while insinuating BF is racist.
More liberal logic?
Every natural disaster brings looting. It's a sad state of affairs.
Not in all countries.
That's fair. It probably isn't every disaster here either, but it certainly seems like it happens often under those circumstances.
Too often here.
Agreed.
Looks like they're saving the merchandise in those stores from hurricane Irma. Here's are some other really good tweets.
Those were great!
So comfortable in their endeavor, that they do it in full view of local news camera crews. Here's a thought: Try the back door. Fewer news cameras, etc. That way, my faith in humanity doesn't take a beating every time this kind of...self-enrichment opportunity...presents itself.
Or else just be good citizens and not criminals.
So true, Sister.

I was wondering how long it would take for the looting to begin.
The worst I have ever seen during a hurricane was in N.O. during Katrina. Around the Magazine St. area in the inner city.

One lives with a smile on their face.
One lives looking over their shoulder.

Check out the lady in the black swimsuit @ :27. She's the one trying to keep the hurricane-chic rain gear wrapped around her shoulders. Fastest ass vs. hole assessment ever.
I'm sorry, but not at all surprised. Looting seems to be the way of the world, these days...
Good one Bruce!
LOL!!!
So funny!
