WALNUT CREEK, Calif. - More Bay Area retail stores are falling victim to looting; this time, police in Walnut Creek have arrested three people after packages and merchandise were stolen from Nordstrom near Broadway Plaza and workers were assaulted.
Witnesses say they saw anywhere from 50 t0 80 people running in and stealing merchandise from the high-end department store on Saturday just before 9 p.m., when the store closes.
On Sunday, police said they have arrested Dana Dawson, 30, on suspicion of gun violations, and Joshua Underwood, 32, and Rodney Robinson, 18, for allegedly being among 80 who not only stole from Nordstrom, but assaulted two workers and pepper sprayed one of them.

Walnut Creek call this a "clearly planned event."
People eating outside across the street said they were worried the violence would spill into their restaurant.
"I had to start locking the front door, back door, you never know," said Brett Barrett, PF Chang's manager. "If it was right there, they could come right here. It was crazy for a second, all the guests inside were getting concerned. It was a scary scene for a moment. Oh yeah, people had boxes, bags, it was a crazy scene."
So far there hasn't been any visual evidence of violent break-ins. There were no broken shattered windows like at San Francisco's Louis Vuitton store in Union Square, which was "emptied out" by thieves Friday night, and display windows were smashed to pieces.
That's likely because the store was still open.
