A business owner whose store was looted told CNN that several people advised him to get out of Philadelphia while he can, saying it was a common attitude in the city.
Philly business owner says there's a 'get out while you can' mentality in the city after store is looted
"Absolutely. I started this business in mom’s basement. I grew up 10 blocks away from where my store is, I have been here 13 years. And since this situation has happened, a lot of people say ‘You know what Jay, it is time for you to get out of this city.’ That hurts me because I love it here, I love the people here. There are so many good people in Philadelphia. There is only a couple bad apples that ruin it.
Pross told CNN that he got a phone call at 12:45 saying that the windows of his business were broken and people were seen running in and out of the store with merchandise.
