I’m assuming this is a superimposed post-edited video right? It would be weird for sidetracks to manually zoom in and out and track people as they enter the bar.

Blaming the victim is no longer acceptable, haven’t you heard? The theives are the ones to blame, not their target.

3:40 am on Christmas Eve and people are in a bar? What a sad life they must lead.

3:40 am Christmas Eve, not on Xmas Day. Still sad, but fair game for the Hooded Pelican and the little Cindy Grinch to try and steal Christmas. That nose is the ultimate finger print.
