For the second consecutive night, Philadelphia witnessed widespread looting and chaos as mobs targeted various businesses, including GameStops, beauty shops, sneaker stores, and electronics retailers. The looting spree also saw a Wells Fargo ATM being ripped out and stolen. Reportedly, Interim Police Commissioner John Stanford emphasised that the looters were not affiliated with the protest but instead described them as "a bunch of criminal opportunists." In response, all state-run liquor stores in Philadelphia have been temporarily closed, and Over 50 arrests were made in connection with the unrest.
