Tennessee shoppers trap looting gang inside store as they wait for cops to arrive

Sharing is Caring!

A shopping trip for customers at Tanger Outlets Nashville went wrong after a group of robbers broke into a perfume store.

A TikTok user (@ptodropout) posted a video obtained by WSMV4 of four individuals robbing Perfumania at the Antioch outlets on June 2.

One security guard and multiple shoppers held the door shut while the incident was taking place and trapped the thieves inside while they waited for police.

But the robbers were able to escape by smashing their way through a back door before the cops could arrive.

Preston, the TikToker’s son and one of the witnesses, told WSMV4 that he could hear an employee yell, ‘Y’all can’t be in here’ right before the incident began.

‘I turned around and saw three or four people walking in with masks and hoodies on,’ he told the news outlet.

‘I’ve never seen it happen before, so I was a little in shock. I just was doing what I thought I should do,’ said Preston.

‘[They were] Trying to run around the store, break into the cash register, break through the glass, get all the cologne out of the shelves and stuff.’

Witnesses said that they weren’t sure if the foursome were armed but that they were between the ages of 16 and 20.

The TikToker, who caught almost all of the events on camera, wrote in the video that it ‘took 30 minutes’ for the cops to arrive on the scene.
