KRON 4
More than 70 new cars were stolen from the San Leandro Dodge dealership, as looting and destruction hit the city Sunday night.
The car dealership says it spent a majority of the day fixing the cars that were left on the lot and cleaning up glass from the shattered windows and doors.
The owner of the dealership says the looting began across the street at the Marina Square Shops.
Around 7:30 people made their way into the dealership and by 10:30 people drove off with nearly $2.7 million worth of brand new cars.
Video posted to social media shows looters burning out tires then driving brand new cars off the lot.
“Oh it was a war zone. They came in, finally got in here and they had tear gas and there were cars crashed everywhere. It was bad and 70 plus cars are missing,” Carlos Hidalgo said.
