California Mall Hit Up In Huge Smash-And-Grab Robbery

A group of people robbed a Bay-area mall in a smash-and-grab incident this past weekend.

Hayward police reported to the Southland Mall in Hayward, California, around 5:30 p.m. on Sunday after several calls from store employees about thieves taking items in loads of came in. One of the stores that were hit hard was a Lululemon in San Jose.

Those who witnessed the robbery said a large mob of about 40 to 50 people made a huge scene before using hammers and tools to steal gems and other items from Sam’s Jewelers.

“A large mob robbed Sam’s Jewelers inside Southland Mall, Hayward. PD said they received calls at 5:25 pm today. Witnesses told me 1st wave of robbers involved about 30-40 kids. A 2nd wave with fewer robbers returned to clean it up. Story tonight 11 on Ch 5 @ KPIXtv,” wrote KPIX-TV reporter Da Lin in a tweet with a video of the incident.

“I would say at least 30 to 40 [people] from what I saw,” said one of the witnesses. “But then after the main group of kids rushed out, we saw 15 to 20 scattering, some even came back in.”

Lin showed another video of the shop’s employees cleaning up the trashed store. “I’m a little shaken up. But glad to go home,” a mall worker told KPIX. “It was very scary,” said another employee at the mall. “People with no morals, no sense for other people’s safety. I feel helpless. It’s disturbing.”

No arrests have been made, and none of the suspects have been identified.
