22 Shoplifters Stormed a Walmart in Tennessee

Twenty-two looters invaded a Whitehaven, Tennessee Walmart on Sunday, November 20, and quickly walked away with anything they could carry.

Surveillance footage of the robbery, released by the Memphis Police Department shows a group of people pulling into the Whitehaven Elvis Presley Boulevard Walmart parking lot at around 8:50 pm. 

The robbers were armed and threw a tire iron through the store’s glass window, to gain access. 

The video, released November 22, shows the group entering the store and leaving with two black panther scooters, several speakers, two flat-screen TVs, car batteries, and shop vacuums.

The store was closed at the time and no customers or staff were on site. 

Police said the stolen items were worth about $7,700. 

The store alarm was set off, but the suspects escaped from the crime scene before 12 police officers responded to the call. The looters left through the broken window they had entered with. 

According to the police, another surveillance footage showed the criminals arriving at the Walmart in more than 20 vehicles, in what appeared to be a well-planned heist. 

Investigators from the Memphis Police Department are still investigating the theft and haven’t made any arrests.
