Hopefully those market robbers were the ones caught in the Jewelry robbery and off the streets.

I think only three of the four have been caught, at least as of last night.

For the jewelry stores, I wish there was a very loud piercing warning button that could be heard for a mile. Maybe a light sensor could be alerted outside when the warning button is pressed so you know which store it is from. And then ideally the police would know immediately (same light source would go off at police stations) as to a store that s being robbed and can be on the lookout for the scooters sooner. I wish the stores had automatic shut down so the stores nearby would lock automatically and have time to secure their property and keep the customers secure. For grocery stores, have employees empty their tills to management office every two or three hours or so -- that way not too much left in the cash register.
