A series of flash robberies involving hordes of thugs were caught on video over the weekend in Oakland, California.

KGO-TV San Francisco's Dion Lim shared multiple incidents on Twitter:

Wellspring Pharmacy shared this video w/me showing dozens of thieves stealing medication SATURDAY around 7:30PM.

The pharmacy sped up the video & said their employees all came in today & restored the pharmacy so patients could get their meds tomorrow.

A pharmacy employee said they were “overwhelmed and devastated”. They’re not a big chain like CVS or Walgreens.

I feel overwhelmed after learning of coordinated robberies in San Jose, Oakland, San Francisco, Alameda & beyond this weekend. It is too much to cover. 🤦🏻‍♀️ (2/2)

A neighbor recorded what appears to be more than a dozen people breaking in/climbing over a fence at 8th Ave. & 10th St. in Oakland early Sunday morning.

The person who recorded it says there were about 15-20 cars lined up outside. pic.twitter.com/YBtP1vYnO3

Speaking of mass robberies in the Bay Area…a family-owned jewelry shop in Oakland’s Chinatown was targeted around 1:40AM.

The owner tells me about a dozen people were seen on surveillance trying to break in.

You can see a crowbar & what appears to be a carjack (1/4) #BayArea pic.twitter.com/86vTFZcTMU

The people are unable to break through the metal gate installed earlier this year. (They were robbed in Feb.)

I shortened the 4m vid but here’s the end where you can see everyone run into waiting cars nearby.

"We just feel so numb & disgusted.” says the owner. (2/4) #oakland pic.twitter.com/AibEuaQFhg

A good neighbor called 9-1-1 to alert OPD.

BTW: this shop was the one I reported on a few months ago. A family member witnessed women get robbed & dragged on the ground outside.

He ran after them & threw a stool to stop the getaway car. (3/4) #oakland #aapi pic.twitter.com/o0hhFQNcr9

The store owner tells me they’re adding security cameras, moving their inventory to a safer place & working on finding ways to stay in business safely.

(BTW: grandma apparently loves her store but is in “utter shock this year” and is terrified. 😢)

Note: the jewelry store incident from this fall where a man chased after the prude snatchers is actually another location— same family.

One family member says a jewelry store on the block closed because of theft and moved to San Jose.

A delivery driver sent this to me. He recorded another driver get punched & his cell phone snatched.

This happened in the past hour outside a pizza shop in SOMA on Market.

As if watching videos of the robberies in Union Square all day wasn’t scary enough… #SanFrancisco pic.twitter.com/X8SFPPubFt
