As Black Lives Matter protests continue across the country, looters are taking advantage of the protests to loot retail stores. One of the most recent protests turned chaos was Los Angeles’ BLM protest which take place Saturday, May 30th. What started out as a peaceful protest, ended up in total chaos forcing Los Angeles officials to implement a city wide curfew.
The protest started out in Pan Pacific Park and ended up in Beverly Hills. For those familiar with the Los Angeles area, Melrose and Fairfax are areas between Pan Pacific Park and Beverly Hills. As the protest went late into the evening, looters began to make their way to Melrose and Fairfax avenues which is home to many fashion retailers including renown streetwear vendor Round Two and sneaker staple Flight Club.
The two stores were emptied out of their entire inventory. View footage of the incidents below!
