Investigators are combing through surveillance footage of a mob robbery on a BART train in Oakland, California, which involved up to 60 suspects.

Dozens of teenagers jumped fare gates and stormed the commuter train on Saturday night, strong-arming six victims ― plus one on the platform ― out of a purse, five cell phones and a duffel bag in just 30 seconds, authorities told The Los Angeles Times Monday. The suspects scattered into the streets below before police arrived.

One victim told KPIX in the segment above that at first it seemed like the invading throng was just “horsing around.”

“By the time I realized it was turning violent, someone had already snatched my phone,” she said.

Two passengers required medical attention from paramedics for face and head injuries.

KPIX reported that at least a few flash robberies have happened before on the line ― but BART spokeswoman Alicia Trost said never in these kinds of numbers.

A BART police sergeant and an officer who were in the Coliseum Station parking lot near the train arrived within minutes but were too late, the news outlet noted.

The surveillance video is not being released to the public because the suspects appear to be juveniles, according to SF Gate. But the footage is being shared with housing and school authorities to help identify the suspects.

The video isnt being shared because that upsets the narative of racial marxists.

Important to remember that 54 of the 60 youths did not take anything.

I think the initial feeling was correct "horsing around". Then a couple asshats decided to fuel Sammy's racial distemper.

Why does jergul keep explaining away burglary as typical male behavior?

Can mobs of whites now break into homes and mug folks too? That'd be OK?

Burglary is illegal, so it's probably not okay whether you are black or white.

I'm not sure how one can call a coordinated attack on a bus station as "horsing around".

"Important to remember that 54 of the 60 youths did not take anything."

All sixty participated. They probably are under the impression that because some didn't take anything none will get busted for it. Much like when a bunch of kids would rush into a store and not all of them would take shit thinking in the confusion it would be impossible to tell who took what. The plan is not everybody will grab something.

Problem with their plan is because they were involved the can be charged the same as if they had actually taken things. Kind of like how a person waiting in the car during a robbery can be charged with murder if someone else inside kills another person. Being a part of the mob means being responsible for everything the mob does in these situations.
