Los Angeles: The Los Angeles Police Department's Commercial Crimes Division Organized Retail Crime Task Force is working with Rampart, Wilshire, Hollywood, and West LA Divisions to identify the suspects involved.

The suspects enter the stores in the evening hours, remove merchandise, damage property, and flee without paying. The incidents have been captured on security surveillance videos. The suspects are described as youthful males, possibly teens varying in ethnicity and physical descriptors.

In several incidents, the witnesses were physically pushed by the suspects during the criminal take-over of the stores, with no regard for others safety. Although there are no reported physical injuries, several witnesses continue to fear for their safety after such aggressive and callous criminal behavior.

The investigations are ongoing and anyone with information regarding these types of incidents are urged to contact 1-877-LAPD-24-7 (1-877-527-3247).
