Police said the group stormed stores and were fighting through the streets.
-- A South Loop convenience store was looted Sunday night, and dozens of people – mostly teenagers – were arrested, as yet another teen takeover hit a downtown neighborhood.
The store was trashed as young people tossed stolen merchandise into the air and ran away with their arms full of goods.In a Snapchat video posted in the aftermath, a customer came to try to get cash from the ATM.Chicago Police supervisors were heard encouraging officers to lock people up. Meanwhile, CBS 2's Jermont Terry has learned that some community activists headed to the scene to try to stop the teen takeover. Two of the violence interrupters believe there would have been more teens arrested if they had not stepped in.
So Williams, along with Charles McKenzie, tried convincing the teenager to leave. But the task wasn't easy.And Chicago Police were not out to babysit. "That just shows there will be some accountability will be in place, and I hope that it actually brings more awareness for parents to make sure that they know where their children are," Williams said."I saw a father come out, told his daughters: 'Hey, you guys are supposed to be at the show! What are you guys doing here? Get in the car!'" McKenzie said."And when I say a response team, that means you're coming with a plan," Williams said.
