Video Catches Swarming Criminal Squad Stealing $38K From NY Store

A wolf pack of nine thieves swarmed a neighborhood grocery store in Syracuse, New York and stole $38,000 by distracting the clerk and blocking her view of the crime.

Syracuse police told the media that the thieves are “a roving band of scam artists who target small stores with few employees,” according to WNYW-TV.

Cops say the criminal crew took $38,000 from the Vietnamese grocery store Saturday night. Surveillance video from the store shows several men and women milling about while the cashier is lured away from her register and then blocked into an aisle.

One of the thieves slipped behind the counter while others stuffed merchandise into their clothing.

Here is a video of the coordinated thieves doing their dirty work, courtesy of  WNYW:

      …and what RACE might that be sheelback? Evil is evil and it occurs in all races…these puppies where white, or arab, not real sure from the video, so if your trying to pin this one on the Afrikaners – you fail. However, I may point out we have seen MANY videos of the Afrikaners doing this flash robbery thing. It is all disturbing, no matter what race does it, correct?

      Why did I even bother to look at the video.
      For 15% of the population, the videos seem to
      always be full of black criminals.
      “I be allowed to steal, I be black.”

      Why is it always in some democrat paradise like NY?
      I never see these videos from, oh, Salina, Kansas.
      I wonder why?

      I am from near where this happened and this mom and pop store collects money from others in the neighborhood to send home. Most of the 38k came from that. If you watch the local Syracuse NY news where this happened, they tell you outright that they are Romanies who committed the crime. They are all over right now breaking into people’s homes and businesses.

    Having years of experience owning and operating convenience stores, think these thieves would be not only a owners but an employees almost worst night mare. The only thing worst, would be a actual armed robbery. These thugs know if someone actually shoots back at these low lifes , most likely they will shoot back or file a law suit in some liberal court, if they get injured or arrested. This seems to be a tread all over our country,especially since Obama took the oval office. Still believe there is a major battle coming between good and evil, the takers and the givers, just hope if when push actually comes to shove, the prepared stand tall together to eliminate this slush from the USA for ever. Forty years+ of failed liberal social programs, lack of self responsibility, family destruction, free monthly government hand outs, has produced mostly chaos. Liberalism is a disease and it breeds bad idiots.

    Very important that these crimes are prosecuted to the fullest extent.. They are indicative of the lawless poison in our culture.
    More and more citizens are losing any sense of boundaries and respect for the property and livelihood of others. There is a strong connection between this mentality and the success and support of Occupy movements.

      Well, when you have our POS POTUS standing up there praising these lice for their “freedom movement”, you can expect to have the lawless elements of society taking note that the laws aren’t being enforced and jumping on the criminal bandwagon to take advantage of the situation.

      This is a natural end result of the morally bankrupt presidency of ODUMBER. The only “leadership” that POS has exerted so far is encouraging things like this and Arab Spring that should not be encouraged because they are destructive to society. But then, of course, that is his objective–to destroy American society. That America-hating POS must be overjoyed at the destruction he has accomplished in the past three+ years–all the more reason to turn his sorry A** out of office this year before he can do still MORE damage to what is left of our country.
