Flash mob of black teens on a Jacksonville Walmart ends tragically

A Jacksonville Walmart was the follow-up to a huge house party that ended with theft, vandalism and even a murder.

The havoc was caught on a video (posted on YouTube, see below) capturing the weekend chaos that left one person shot and giving the local police a long list of investigations.

Jacksonville.com reports that Walmart spokeswoman Dianna Gee said she learned of the incident, then spoke with the shift manager who helped keep the employees (as they were trained) clear of the chaos and calling police.

“The actions of these teenagers was deplorable and put at risk the safety of innocent bystanders, staff and customers,” Gee said. “We are committed to assisting law enforcement in any way we can to identify the people responsible for the commotion, including acts of vandalism and thefts at the store.”

Men and women, most appearing to be teens on the YouTube video, threw produce around as they crowded into the store. The three-minute video shows people riding shopping carts and mugging for the camera in what apparently lasted several minutes.

Gee said snacks and sodas were stolen, but no one was hurt and damage was minimal. A store security scanner also was damaged as everybody fled, the police report said.

No identifiable Walmart employees are seen during the video. The gunshots were fired into the air outside the store, but no cars or people were hit, the report said.
