19 Teens Arrested After Mall Riot at a Mindless Behavior Appearance (Video)
50 squad cars descended upon the Ford City Mall in southwest Chicago Sunday to restore order when 100 to 200 kids rioted after a Mindless Behavior appearance.
The teeny bopper group made an appearance at the food court in the mall earlier in the day to promote their new release, “All Around the World,” John Sarama, the mall’s senior general manager, told the Chicago Tribune.
The group signed autographs for approximately 1,000 parents and children, Sarama said.
About 45 minutes after the band left, roving bands of youths began fighting each other.
“A group of older youths came into the mall with the intent of causing havoc and chaos and were running through the mall, screaming, yelling and so forth,” Sarama said.
Security called police and the mall was shut down, the Chicago Tribune reports.
19 teenagers between the ages of 13 and 18 were arrested, and two people, including a CTA bus driver, were taken to local hospitals, said Chicago Fire Department Chief Joe Roccasalva, a department spokesman.
The charges ranged from assault and battery to destruction of property.
The chaos spilled outside the mall, tying up traffic which eventually came to a standstill as kids jumped on cars.
Police say Mindless Behavior’s appearance did not spark the riot.

Man I say let all those idiot teens in chicago kill each other,
No words to even describe these kids these day Barbarians!
Boot thankyou so much
Typical
@ Jenie
@ Boot cute avi and morning!
They had a huge RIOT at my LOCAL mall not too long ago and 12 teens were arrested… I know at the uppidy mall people under 18 must have an ADULT with them.. damn shame
so almost an hour after the group leaves, the teens start fighting…what does that have to do with the group…I’m gonna need folks to let Immature 2.0 make it
I mean what was the point of them doing all this
I mean I am lost as to why they felt the need to riot like this 
they all must be on that molly bath salt stuff. Parents please be mindful of what you allow your children to hear, and see 
spirits are very real, and this music and television is getting our youth. It’s important to teach your child right from wrong, if you love em. Some are growing up empty with not a care in the world 
Gagirl
Morning love
It’s not even suprising to me really. How did that fool even get a chair to throw?!
Had it been me, I’d be thrown in jail for child abuse. Bash in my window if you want to.
I’m gonna need folks to let Immature 2.0 make it

) I’m trying to just sop up as much as I can because I know when I finally get my joint spouse assignment (iffin the guh’bment get their budget ish together) my hubby is gonna turn him into a manly man

I’m not sure…I’d give them from 13-16 maybe….they are young, they look young, they should young
sorry sound young

I dont think they would task them at this level right now, but if it were to get much worse than this, like multiple shootings at a mall (since Chicago is always in the news right now) then maybe they might consider it. I dont see it happening though. They are more for natural disasters and such.

Speaking of… I saw a picture of Kristen Stewart…sloppy hair and matalic silver shoes with a creme lace and chiffon flower dress on. The dress is nice…
LADIELEO – just remember you were warned
Jennifer Hudson looked a mess as usual
————–
I had to scroll down to her foot because I couldn’t tell which leg she was sticking out… knock kneed like a muhvah
maybe folks hyped her up too much for me cause I was not impressed with Charlize’s looks…she’s gorgeous for sure but her dress and that hair, meh…she looked like a fresh faced Bridgette Nielson #nohate
Y’all see Jamie Foxx and his daugher? She’s gorgeous too!
Jamie Foxx been looking OLD lately but he looked good.his daughter worked the red carpet like a pro..she was gorgeous last night..
J-HUD looked better during her performance.. her red carpet look was ALL OFF..bish think since she got skinty she can wear anything and look GOOD..WRONG BISH
@topic – We are living in the last days, so I’m saddened but not surprised by this. Not to sound pessimistic, but I believe the generations will only get worse, because we are in an advanced state of moral decay. I will continue to pray for the misguided youth of today and the victims of their wreckless behavior.
I would have been killed had I participated in this! smh
