Flash mobs are usually fun, especially for those who don’t see it coming.
Unfortunately for Gloria Mantas, she became the victim of a flash mob robbery over the weekend.
Mantas was working at her convenience store gas station on Washington Street early Sunday morning when about 25 teenagers suddenly came in at once just after midnight.
They started grabbing drinks, candy, ice cream and anything they could get their hands on. Then, in less than a minute, they all left at once – without paying for anything.
Mantas was too overwhelmed by the crowd to stop them. She called police and they’re looking into what happened, but there have been no arrests.
Mantas told WBZ-TV she heard the kids may have come from a party in the area that night.
No one was hurt in the incident.Â
