   MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Dozens of suspects robbed two gas stations   
   overnight, stealing over $17,000 worth of merchandise, police   
   say.   
      
   Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland made a statement saying he’s angry   
   more than anything.   
      
   “I mean it’s similar to videos I’ve seen across the country.   
   Those convenience store owners are small business people. I’ve   
   met with them. They have to work there, themselves a lot, just   
   to earn a living,” Mayor Strickland said. “The court system   
   needs fundamental change to adjust to what’s going on out in the   
   community. The police are arresting them. The courts won’t keep   
   them.”   
      
   3 detained after thieves ransack FedEx semi-trailer   
   According to reports, just after 10 p.m., a mob of approximately   
   30-40 suspects entered the Exxon at 3483 Airways Boulevard. The   
   suspects grabbed multiple items of merchandise and ran out of   
   the store.   
      
   $2,000 worth of items were reportedly stolen from the first   
   business.

   At 11:50 p.m., approximately 40 suspects entered the Fill-N-Go   
   gas station at 3084 South Third Street. An individual inside the   
   business said that one of the suspects came into the store and   
   pointed a rifle at him before leaving.   
      
   The victim says that the suspect had on a black Nike ski mask, a   
   black pullover hoodie, blue jeans, and a black bag across his   
   chest.   
      
   Police released information on the individual responsible for   
   the aggravated assault. They say he will be in a newer model   
   white Mitsubishi Outlander, possibly with a woman wearing a   
   black pullover, green T-shirt, black tights, and black slides.   
      
   The suspects caused approximately $9,000 worth of damage to the   
   second business and stole approximately $15,000 worth of   
   merchandise.   
      
   It is unclear if the thefts were caused by the same group of   
   people.
