INSANE Photo From San Francisco Sums Up The Violent Crime Crisis In Major Cities Everywhere

Crime in big cities has spiraled out of control with gun violence, homicides, and robberies becoming an everyday occurrence. While these acts of crime are just part of the norm it’s still shocking to see something like this photo out of San Francisco depicting what looks like an action-packed scene from a movie.

The photo shows a woman hanging out of the passenger side window of a moving vehicle while holding what appears to be an AK47 ready to fire. 

“During an illegal exhibition of speed event at Barneveld & McKinnon, a passenger leaned out of a Cadi holding an AK47; see photo. SFPD Traffic Company personnel worked up a case, and seized this particular vehicle today,” the San Francisco Police Department wrote on Twitter, accompanied by photos.

The Cadillac was found by authorities and towed on Wednesday.

The photo was taken after police reported a rise in shootings and assaults in the city during the first half of 2021.

“We’re almost double where we were in the last two years, and that is a huge concern,” Police Chief Bill Scott told reporters during a mid-year report last month.

He added at the time that robberies were down in the city despite viral videos showing people brazenly shoplifting from stores in the city.

In one incident last month, 10 people were seen taking designer handbags from a Nieman Marcus in Union Square and leaving the scene in vehicles that were waiting for them outside.

According to the Council on Criminal Justice’s pandemic crime report, there were 119 shootings reported in San Franciso during the first 6 months of this year compared to just 58 at the same time last year, and murders in major cities across the country have increased by over 16% in the same time frame.
