A day after a violent mob of 40-50 people, many of whom had likely been participating or spectating at a nearby illegal street takeover in Orange County, overran a 7-Eleven, assaulted the clerk and ransacked the store, the clerk and police are speaking out.

I don't know how they can be called desperate. These people are just thieves.

[cindyfall]

In some countries you will lose a hand for being a thief

[smikell]

7-Eleven is being targeted is because there’s not someone behind the counter with a loaded gun

[gemee]

These are YOUTH, ...not " desperate

"Our response was delayed because there were too many vehicles in the area."
Hmmm. So a mob can take over a store and nothing happens. What's next?

[MKUltra]

Their mothers had them for free govt money, not because they loved them. This is the result.

[minaguirguis]

Desperate?? Desperate to make your life miserable by stealing and being destructive. When are the regular folks going to stand up to this madness? Unite and resist.

[Lenny.]

That guy saying that these are desperate people is so wrong and I wish he'd own his own business and have the same opinion if this happened to him. These were all opportunists.

Save the chicken tandoori Deport the burrito.

😮😐 Don't understand why it took the police so long to get there 😡

[Elainerulesutube]

😢I feel sorry for the people who work in these convenience stores.

[LilyCorowsky]

There is no excuse for this kind of immoral behavior. It’s theft and robbery; it’s not desperation. Even desperation is no excuse to harm and rob others. Where is law enforcement in all of this? It seems like more of these robberies at stores and homes are happening more and more.

[Nopenotmyname]

The only place that serves burritos that late 😂

[robertlucero]

COWARDS. Embarrassing. Should be ashamed of themselves

[BradPitbull]

I agree 👍 with the reporter completely.... Gavin newsom and DA gascon and karen bass have made California unsafe

[smikell]

Robbing a 7-Eleven imagine going to prison for robbing a 7-Eleven for what hotdogs, chips, sodas, and energy drinks they don’t have any real money, so what are you actually Ginie you might as will be robbing the dollar tree

[smikell]

They really think they can cash in these lottery tickets when they talk about stupid criminals. This is what they’re talking about.
