WASHINGTON DC - Caught on tape. A brazen robbery occurred in broad daylight at a Dupont Circle men's store. These daytime hold ups are going on more often than you might think.Surveillance video from the G-Star Raw store on Connecticut Avenue on Monday shows more than a dozen African American teenagers rushing in, overwhelming customers and employees. They ended up walking away with more than $20,000 dollars worth of merchandise.
This bold type of criminal activity happens quite a bit. It has happened several times at the Georgetown Tee's store in Georgetown.
The store owner says about two weeks ago at around 2 p.m., about 20 to 25 young people came into the store and lined up in the area of where all the Georgetown University merchandise was. They immediately started grabbing items, putting them in their shirts and jackets or stuffing them in their pants. Then they tried to leave the store.
The owner says she tried to block the door. But there were so many people in the store that they just pushed her out of the way and kept going.
