A video shows looters throwing rocks and raiding an Amazon delivery van during George Floyd protests in Los Angeles

A video online shows looters raiding an Amazon delivery van during protests over the death of George Floyd in Los Angeles on Sunday.
Santa Monica resident and former journalist Kyli Singh filmed the incident from her balcony in Santa Monica and shared it on Twitter over the weekend.
In a message to Business Insider, Singh said that she witnessed the looting take place on 5th Street between Broadway and Santa Monica Boulevard on Sunday.
"I started to see looters parking their cars on the street, running to shops, and then running back with items like Vans shoes boxes," she said.
"I caught footage of a small group of looters throwing rocks at an Amazon Prime truck, and broke inside. While this is happening, you can hear on video a woman yelling at the top of her lungs, "what the f*ck are you doing?" she added.
Singh said that what started out as five looters quickly turned into a larger group of people who were grabbing boxes from the truck and running back to their cars with them.
"Thankfully, the driver was not in the vehicle at the time and there were no other passengers," she said, adding that the driver came to the scene after the looting and spoke with the police before sweeping the glass off their seat and driving the van away.
Singh said that while she doesn't agree with looting or any other forms of violence, she understands where the anger comes from. "I understand that I will never know the pain or struggle black people face in America. I stand with #BlackLivesMatter, and am determined to keep speaking out to bring meaningful change that is long overdue,' she said.
In a statement to Business Insider, a spokesperson for Amazon confirmed that the driver is safe.
"We are monitoring the situation closely and have adjusted routes or scaled back typical delivery operations in the affected areas to ensure the safety of our teams," the spokesperson said.
Amazon said that if it feels that an area for delivery is unsafe, it will cancel the delivery block.
In recent conversations with Bloomberg, several Amazon drivers said that they feared for their safety, however.
"I feel like I have a target on my back," an Amazon delivery driver in Chicago told Bloomberg's Spencer Soper. "I usually get about $100 for a four-hour shift, and that's just not worth getting my car trashed," they said.
Another Amazon driver in Washington said he canceled all his shifts this week after seeing the video of the looting in Santa Monica.
"You're out there in a vest with a car full of packages, so you feel like a target," he told Bloomberg. "That video scared a lot of people."

What's the point of it in your trunk.Why are we like this? Second time I asked myself this today..earlier today…I stopped at a stop sign 4 gentlemen 20-25 yelled they should take my car mind you I have a Sig in the trunk
Luv my people but damn…
You gonna ask them wait, hold up, let me go in my trunk, when they roll up on you?
Asking for a friend.
Purse snatched
For one you can’t ride in a vehicle with a shotgun in your seat in FL, two I was coming from the range and lastly I can access my trunk from inside my vehicle. I’ve dealt with some pretty nasty people around the world in my former career I think I can handle(paws) 4 Tampa fuck boys….Point is young people in our community have a bad habit of fucking with people trying to show off or act tough around the crew..could’ve ended very badly for them
OK I just always have mine within reach.
Like a pack of animals. Shit is just stupid. Get a job and buy your own damn TV, toaster oven, etc.
Good to know this wasn't recent, was Jun 2020
