A gas station on Hegenberger in Oakland was vandalized and ransacked by a group of nearly 100 people early this morning, causing approximately $100,000 in damage and losses. The mob allegedly dismantled the ATM, broke fridges, and threatened two workers. The store owner, Sam Mardaie, expressed frustration over the delayed police response, stating that officers took hours to arrive. This incident occurred at a 76 station that has frequently been targeted by car burglars and was operating as window-service only. The event has sparked criticism of local law enforcement and policies perceived as lenient on crime.
