A massive mob of looters stormed and ransacked an AutoZone store in southern Los Angeles early Monday morning in a possible street takeover that resulted in significant damage and merchandise losses. 

A crowd of more than 100 individuals were seen breaking into the store around 4:00 a.m., Fox 11 Los Angeles reported, citing police and footage from the Citizen app.

“A radio call was generated for a ‘Burglary Suspects There Now’ on the 9800 block of South Hoover Street,” the Los Angeles Police Department told Fox News Digital. “Comments of the call stated there were approximately 20 suspects removing merchandise from a business.”

Individuals ripped open a metal fence, shattered glass and broke display cases to steal merchandise, Fox 11 reported. It remains unclear how much in value was taken during the incident.

Police estimated that last year’s incident resulted in $67,000 in merchandise losses, according to the local outlet.  

Following the 2024 incident, security camera footage helped law enforcement in identifying and arresting many of the suspects, the outlet added.
