Crazy Train: Mob Loots Freight Train in Chicago for Funnsies

I’ve never liked Chicago (mostly because I enjoy not being shot), and the recent news coming out of the Windy City isn’t helping my bias.

Fox News reports:

Wild news helicopter footage captured the moment a mob of approximately 30 people, some armed, according to police, looted a freight train in Chicago on Friday and made off with appliances like air fryers and flat-screen TVs.

At least six people were arrested following the incident which took place at around 2:40 p.m. as the double-stacked train was stopped and awaiting an interchange with a partner railroad on the city’s West Side, Union Pacific tells Fox News Digital.

Swarms of thieves can be seen opening container doors and then plundering the boxed goods. Police radio communications said the suspects were armed with guns and lock openers, Fox 32 Chicago reports, citing police.

I mean, air fryers are pretty nifty and all—but I wouldn’t say achieving the perfect crisp on a French fry is worth jailtime.

Watch the incident unfold:

In all seriousness, seeing people commit crimes like this so brazenly is infuriating. They were out in broad daylight RUNNING THROUGH THE STREET WITH FLAT SCREENS. And what is worse is it doesn’t seem like the looters were all that scared of the police when they arrived. They simply drove off.

Your city has reached a new level of lawlessness when something like this happens. Democrat policies in action, ladies and gentlemen. Good grief.
