(WATCH) Woman With A Pickaxe Robs A Los Angeles Rite Aid In Broad Daylight (VIDEO)
Video footage shows a woman wielding a pickaxe casually robbing a Rite Aid pharmacy in Los Angeles. The woman is seen aggressively dragging a basket full of merchandise across the store, with the pickaxe over her shoulder, while threatening store employees and customers.
As she starts heading towards the exit, the woman steps by the checkout counter and told an employee she’ll come back.
When an employee pleaded with her not to steal products from the beauty section, she replied, “I’m not f*****g around.”
She added, “I don’t want to smell like s**t when I’m knocking these b*****s out.”
Before she finally exited the store, she made an announcement for all employees and customers present: “Don’t say sh**. Shut the f*** up. Be quiet and follow suit.”

Nobody was injured in the incident, according to police. However, they are still trying to identify the thief.
The city of Los Angeles and much of California has been ravaged by smash-and-grab looting or robberies since November. In just the first week of December, Los Angeles police arrested 14 suspects who may have been involved in one of the 11 different smash-and-grab robberies in November.
However, due to the city’s policy of zero bail, all of the suspects are still on the streets, waiting for their court cases. Speaking with Fox News, Eric Siddall, Vice President of the Association of Los Angeles Deputy District Attorneys, said, “If you look at the 14 people arrested, they could have been charged, there could have been bail amounts set, but none of that was done because the district attorney refuses to take a leadership position on this issue.”
Siddall and many others have pointed blame at Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon for being complacent as crime continues to occur.
