VIDEO: Chopper 5 shows police presence at St. Paul Target, surrounding area
Dozens of people tried to loot the Midway Target in St. Paul Thursday.
According to St. Paul Police, a group of 50 to 60 people tried to overwhelm the store's staff. However, police arrived and confronted the group, and the people then dropped the items they'd grabbed and fled.
Immediately afterward, a fight broke out in the store's parking lot, and a person was nearly run over by a vehicle. Despite that, police said no injuries were reported.
The group also attempted to go into nearby small businesses but were stopped by police.

Is there some link between police reform and Target that I am unaware of?
