A particularly brazen attempt by looters to storm a store in Fairfield, California, has been caught on video, showing them commandeering what appears to be a telescopic forklift to force their way in.
A video has emerged showing vandals using heavy equipment on the doors of the Best Buy store in Fairfield, a city in Solano County, located between San Francisco and Sacramento.

As the man behind the machine's steering wheel rams the doors of the electronics retailer store, several other people dressed in hoodies cheer him on and film the incident.

It is unclear how much damage was done to the store apart from the mangled doors, as looters melted away when they heard police sirens wailing in the vicinity.

Why the forklift was at the site where the looters grabbed hold of it is also unclear.


An array of other businesses were ransacked by looters in the county on Monday, as nationwide protests over the death of George Floyd in the hands of Minneapolis police last week turned violent and were marred by arson and looting.

Local Walgreens and Walmart stores in the city have not been spared the damage either. The instances of looting and vandalism prompted the local authorities to impose a county-wide curfew starting at 8 pm on Tuesday.

The curfew will stay in place until at least Thursday, with the county officials not ruling out that it might be extended further if police fail to quell the violence.

In one particularly concerning development, police reported that some 50 to 70 guns were stolen from a store in Vacaville, a city just to the north of Fairfield, also in the greater San Francisco Bay Area

You got the video link?

crazy times

Looks like the homies are gonna have a bunch of fun and games in Vacaville.

L.W.

Isn't that the forklift that's been used to drop bricks around the area for the rioters in the area.

Vacaville law enforcement are Bulldogs. Wonder if they were ordered to stand down.

50-70 handguns stolen at around 3:30 am.

"Officers from the Vacaville Police Department responded to reports of a group of people wearing black pulling into the parking lot of the shop, and when they arrived, they saw that the glass windows were broken.

Morgan told Fox News four out of the eight suspects were caught by police and 13 of the guns have been recovered."

That’s a telehandler.

Somebody add this to Beaver’s favorite tool thread.

Protesting they ain't gots enough TVs!

No ethical grounding whatsoever.

Somehow I think a civil war would be helpful.

Maybe the carpetbaggers need to try reconstruction, this time in the North. miles

That’s a lot of guns, many will turn up, Sooners or later.
