   HAYWARD (CBS SF) — Looters targeting Bay Area businesses struck again   
   Sunday evening, with smash-and-grab thieves hitting the Southland Mall in   
   Hayward and suspects taking merchandise from a Lululemon store in San   
   Jose.   
      
   Hayward police told KPIX they responded around 5:30 p.m. Sunday to   
   multiple calls from stores in Southland Mall.   
      
   Witnesses said a large mob of people caused a huge disturbance inside the   
   mall, with some briefly taking over a jewelry store.   
      
   Witnesses described some 40 to 50 looters wielding hammers and other tools   
   looted Sam’s Jewelers, breaking glass cases and quickly fleeing. The   
   Macy’s store was also ransacked.   
      
   In video taken during the robbery, you can hear workers inside Sam’s   
   Jewelers screaming in fear.   
      
   “It was a whole bunch of glass shattering,” said one person who was at the   
   mall during the incident.   
      
   Witnesses say this was the tail end of a much scarier and bigger scene.   
      
   “I would say at least 30 to 40 [people] from what I saw,” said another   
   witness, who declined to identify themselves. “But then after the main   
   group of kids rushed out, we saw 15 to 20 scattering, some even came back   
   in.”   
      
   KPIX spoke with two women who work near Sam’s Jewelers. They and other   
   mall workers said some kids ran into other stores and left with shoes and   
   clothing.   
      
   “We saw all the other stores closing. They were panicking, so we were   
   panicking and quickly closed our store and barricaded ourselves,” said one   
   of the women.   
      
   Hayward police said multiple 911 calls came in at around 5:25 p.m., just   
   before closing time. Most of the stores at the mall close at 6 p.m.   
      
   “I’m a little shaken up. But glad to go home,” one mall worker told KPIX.   
      
   “It was very scary,” said another. “People with no morals, no sense for   
   other people’s safety. I feel helpless. It’s disturbing.”   
      
   Police could not immediately say how much jewelry was taken from the store   
   or the volume of merchandise other stores in the mall lost.   
      
   No arrests have been reported by police.   
      
   Meanwhile in San Jose Sunday evening, police said that at approximately   
   6:30 p.m., a group of suspects entered the Lululemon store in Santana Row   
   and took merchandise. They fled prior to police arriving. No other   
   information was immediately available,   
      
   It marked the third straight day a large mob of robbers have gone after   
   retailers in the Bay Area.   
      
   The brazen robberies came hours after Walnut Creek police issued a warning   
   on social media that there maybe a repeat of the bedlam that broke out in   
   their community on Saturday night.   
      
   “The Walnut Creek Police Department is actively monitoring intelligence   
   that indicates the group of thieves who stole from the Broadway Plaza   
   Nordstrom last night are considering similar activity later today,” police   
   posted in Twitter and it was shared by Hayward police.   
      
   “This has not been confirmed, but out of an abundance of caution, we’re   
   alerting businesses and residents to be prepared… some stores may consider   
   closing early or taking other precautions. There is no specific time or   
   target known right now.”   
      
   On Saturday night, dozens of looters swarmed into the Nordstrom store in   
   downtown Walnut Creek, terrorizing shoppers, assaulting employees, ripping   
   off bag loads of merchandise and ransacking shelves before fleeing in a   
   several vehicles waiting for them on the street.   
      
   Walnut Creek Lt. Ryan Hibbs told KPIX that three people were in custody   
   and others were being sought.   
      
   “Walnut Creek police investigators are in the process of reviewing   
   surveillance footage to attempt to identify other suspects responsible for   
   this brazen act,” authorities said in Sunday morning news release.   
      
   Police began receiving calls from Nordstrom employees about the looting at   
   around 9 p.m. He said there were approximately 80 individuals who ran into   
   the store and began looting and smashing shelves.   
      
   Two employees suffered injuries when they were assaulted and another was   
   pepper sprayed by the suspects.
