Two more robberies occurred in Los Angeles County on Black Friday (November 26).

In Lakewood, a group of 15 to 20-year-old suspects broke into a Home Depot store at about 20:30 pm and began grabbing tools, crowbars, hammers, sledgehammers, and then disappeared in cars waiting outside.

About 10 cars stopped at the store and the thieves donned ski masks before starting their Sabbath.

The theft has raised concerns that the stolen tools will be used to carry out more robberies at other stores in the area, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said.

Newsom revealed that back in July, he worked with mayors and police chiefs of 13 cities in the state on a plan to combat store theft.

Despite recent incidents in the San Francisco and Los Angeles neighborhoods, Newsom says the state has made "hundreds of arrests" and returned "tens of millions of dollars" over that time. He promised that the strengthening of the police presence will continue.

Similar thefts in Chicago

The city of Chicago (Illinois) has also become a victim of similar thefts. Burglars attacked four businesses, including the North Face and Footlocker, in the upscale Northwest Chicago neighborhood on Black Friday night, Nov.26, according to police reports. Fox Business.
