Following the acquittal of a police officer accused of murder, riots broke out in Philadelphia. On Tuesday night, Black Lives Matter demonstrators desecrated property all around the city by taking to the streets.
After Officer Mark Dial was cleared of all charges in the sad shooting event, disturbing video shows gangs of rioters looting a liquor shop and a Foot Locker. Watch the mayhem as it develops only hours after the contentious judge Wendy L. Pew ruling.
A metal fence of a liquor store is torn down by BLM looters, who then flee with the products they took from Fine Wine & Good Spirits while causing mayhem in downtown Philadelphia. As others rush out of the store, the mayhem gets worse; some even proudly display their goods.
WATCH:
Watch the commotion take place in the Philadelphia Foot Locker, which is close to the famous Liberty Bell. An employee with little control over the situation could only watch in horror as thieves flung themselves out of the store holding bundles of desirable apparel and priceless riches.
WATCH:
Looters were caught by police at a third location. As the woman documenting the scene burst into laughing and excited yells, one cop quickly restrained a male participant among the commotion.

Apple and Lululemon were not exempt from the looting rampage that struck the Center City commercial district. According to police records provided to Fox News, the commotion started last night at 8 o’clock. Authorities have currently detained somewhere between 15 and 20 people who were involved in the incident.
“In a proactive measure, officers from the 9th District stopped a group of males dressed in black attire and wearing masks at the intersection of 17th and Chestnut Streets,” According to a statement to Fox News Digital from a police spokeswoman.
Following Officer Dial’s acquittal and his assertion that he felt in danger when he fatally shot Eddie Irizarry during a traffic check, outrage broke out. Irizarry, who possessed a knife, was accused by Dial’s defense counsel of holding it in a manner that made it look like a gun’s handle. Prosecutors, however, said that Dial had previously pulled a revolver during a “routine traffic stop.” Dial, who has since left from the force, was accused with murder, voluntary manslaughter, and other offenses but was ultimately found not guilty.
