[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Wild footage captured the moment hundreds of lawless Chicago teens overran the city and attacked random people in the street.
| Remember when it was called wilding? |
The mob was seen violently stomping a shirtless man and flying into a frenzy in videos captured during the takeover of the downtown Loop district on Wednesday night.
Several police cars were seen stationed nearby, yet they apparently failed to intervene, video showed.
Private security group Community Intelligence Unit (CIU) reported at least one teen was beaten unconscious, a number of vehicles were destroyed and several people were arrested.
The group also reported that bear mace was used during the melee, and footage showed several rioters appearing to use tasers to zap each other and innocent victims.
Chicago City Alderman Brian Hopkins announced a curfew for 10pm to help bring the chaos to a close, saying the situation got 'out of control'.
He said the curfew order led the crowd to mostly disperse by 10.40pm, saying that it had an 'immediate impact' after hours of violence.
Locals say similar scenes are becoming more common under the leadership of Mayor Brandon Johnson, with gangs of teens known to frequently overwhelm the popular Loop district late at night with little resistance from authorities.
