"There's a 911 call that goes out of the store almost like every day," said Vincent Emmanuel, who runs a 7-Eleven store in South Philly. He's fed up with the constant crime.Several South Philadelphia business owners say their stores are being plagued by thefts, and not enough is being done to stop the suspects."There's a 911 call that goes out of the store almost like every day," said Emmanuel.
Video shows the thieves smashing out his front windows and then ransacking his store for the next 25 minutes. Almost everything was taken.They both feel as if Philadelphia law enforcement has taken a soft stance on the matter.
It’s sad to see that the black youth think that they can just take anything even a life The difference between right and wrong is taught at home by your parents I guess that is the problem
Get a gun then.
Ridiculous. Philadelphia needs to change. NOW. This could be the start.
Time to leave Philadelphia and move to a safer town.
And nothing happens to the thieves because our sanctuary city is LAWLESS!!!!!!
Looks like they same people in both stores. MMM
JoshShapiroPA’s Philadelphia. Has put the root cause of the problem where it belongs? On Shapiro and Larry Krasner who refuse to prosecute crime because it would upset Shapiro’s base?
Democratic policies at work for you! Vote red!
DBrogno67 I broke it all down for FOX29philly in a lengthy thread. The blame lies at the doorstep of philadao and DA_LarryKrasner for his blatant refusal to follow the PA Crimes Code
Maybe if the local news networks weren’t so far up the arse of the Democratic Party and instead embarrassed the mayor, city council and the DA on every newscast, things might improve.
Think about who and what you are voting for in November. You can not change the status quo w/o changing the way you vote.
But our Mayor is in Quebec Canada learning “best practices” in French & English I suppose so we’ll have to wait for him to come back & implement those best practices.
He could try not being a capitalist exploiter then maybe his store would survive
Who did Vincent vote for in the last Mayoral and DA election? Can someone ask him that, please?
What? Not prosecuting crimes encourages people to commit more crimes? Who would have ever guessed? Certainly not...lame who refuse to cover Krasner failures.
They need to defund more police
PhillyMayor will be addressing that from Canada later today
When a person steals and sales goods. There is nothing mental about that. It's just a crme.
“Emmanuel points to a policy implemented by District Attorney Larry Krasner back in 2018 to charge shoplifting as a summary offense unless the case exceeds $500, or if the suspect has a long history of theft convictions”
DBrogno67 Time to Roll no amount of money is worth your life.
Going to Philadelphia is like Entering the Thunderdome
Time to close up shop like others and move out. Philly has become a battledome and the elected officials offer prayers.
Wow to have to worry that something will happen everyday..
Election results are not going anywhere until you vote Democrats out of office. It's time for change
DA_LarryKrasner is all for the criminal!!
Larry Krasner doesn’t care …
