Violent, thieving mobs have been making headlines across the country for the past few years, and now they have hit New York City.
And Maurice Dubois reported in this CBS 2 investigation, the teen mobs have left neighborhoods worried as businesses take matters into their own hands.
Judson Bennett, 78, recently ran into a violent group of teens – often described with the once-benign term “flash mob” – as he made his daily trip to buy a newspaper at his favorite news team.
“I’m approaching the newsstand, and then suddenly there is a tremendous force behind me,” Bennett said.
Bennett ended up with a broken arm.
“I was taken completely by surprise,” he said.
In New York and across the country, the mobs of kids – 20, 30, 40 or more — appear out of nowhere and suddenly charge a newsstand or convenience store.
They ransack, steal and wreak havoc with no consideration for customers, such as Bennett, who get in their way.

This reminds me of the Mall Security Guard that Tased the biotch that was asking for it, however, if I had to respond to something like this, they would NOT get up and walk away. It's called "mutual respect" folks, either reap it's benefits or suffer it's consequences!

DeleteThat's what needs to start happening.
And over 7 bullets in a mag is now a felony in New York... Why can't they do that in East Texas? Please.
