LAPD officers smashed a car's windows to pull out the occupants during an arrest caught on video, but cops say they were looters.

A swarm of LAPD officers tracked down a sedan, smashed the hell out of the car's windows ... and quickly yanked out the occupants during a pretty violent arrest of alleged looters.Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... a helicopter tracked the car leaving an Urban Outfitters Wednesday in Hollywood, a store that had been looted. When officers on the ground caught up to the car, we're told the driver revved the engine ... allegedly lurching toward a cop.

As you can see multiple officers destroyed the side windows to haul the driver and passengers out of the vehicle. They allegedly refused to exit on their own. One woman appeared to be slightly injured from broken glass, and another went down hard as officers tried to cuff her. The trunk was allegedly chock full of clothes from Urban Outfitters -- complete with merchandise tags still on them -- according to our law enforcement sources.

We're told everyone in the car was booked for burglary, and the driver was also booked for assault with a deadly weapon -- for allegedly driving at one of the officers.

Good. If the looters breaks a window to steal a Gucci bag. They should expect their windows to be broken too.

Good no one gets free Louis Vuitton !

BIG LAUGH OUT LOUD 😂

Excellent. Arrest the cockroaches

You said 'alleged' about 50 times in the article. Once would do it.

This is great 👍

GOOD JOB!!!

Nothing is wrong with that. Those need to be arrested not the protesters.

I have the feeling the cops are lying.

These weren’t the “peaceful looters”?

Looting is not part of the protest, comence cracking skulls.

Sounds appropriate to me.

Good

So were they or were they not looters? Or were they just black?

Weird. Looters smashing windows and now alleged looters are getting their windows smashed

Good.

You don’t have many on your team to represent our black ppl. Two isn’t enough. Babcott and Dennis are clearly racist!! You suck since Van left or got fired . You represent rich celebrities and rich celebrities only!!!

Good !

Imagine that...looters getting their car windows shattered 😁

Good getting a taste of their own medicine

Good, throw all the looters in jail.

So cops breaking windows to arrest looters is BAD but looters breaking windows to loot I mean protest is GOOD?

Can we stop saying what the police officers did and instead say what the CRIMINALS DID THAT MADE THE POLICE OFFICERS HAVE TO DO THEIR JOB THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! LAPDHQ NYPDnews 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

We have to start a drinking game for your readers. Every time you write allegedly we should take a shot! We’ll be drunk by the end of your article!

I guess you could say they got a taste of their own medicine? 🤷 That's what you get for looting. 🤭

Good !!! There doing the damn job

Wish the police had this same energy for police when they kill ppl

Better angle of it on my ig page byronfromearth

What about the rights of the looters

Is it against your policy to post anything that isn't hate filled? There are a lot of peaceful, wonderful protests going on as well. Those probably dont give you the 'clicks' needed though, huh?

NICE WORK!! Lock the thugs up!!

If they really looters, then good job

Were they really looters?

How u gonna act like the cops were the only ones breaking windows 🤣🤣

It’s about time they crack down on looting

What's this obsession with Urban Outfitters?

Call it 'Al Sharpton Law' hater of White People, he don't hide it, he does the work of satan. Rioters are violent criminals. Two wrongs don't make a right!!! NO JUSTICE NO PEACE means LAWLESSNESS

They better have proof if not they need to be fired

👏🏻 good job. Take them to jail, we don’t need people destroying our neighborhoods.

The point is was all of that necessary for looters a possible misdemeanor. They acted as if it was an armed robbery.

Good. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes 😂😂😂😂😂 Lotta well dressed prisoners coming thru.

Good

I hope those cops have the proof.

How were they looting from inside a car?

Crackers.

Protesting does NOT mean looting. SMH SMH

Why not? By any means necessary goes both ways, assholes.

Well i mean they are stealing

Good! Looters are ruining America.

Good

Woo hoo LAPD!

I don't think a lot of police understand why these protests are happening

Good 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Go LAPD !!! Good job 💪💯🇺🇸

What should the cops have done then if they wouldn’t get out of the car?

If they looted, they should answer to the justice system. Don’t take advantage of tragedy for your own gain.

Good work.

Nothing wrong with that

Way to down play the actions of the looters and stress the actions taken by the police. You need to get a better perspective of the damage these assholes are doing to the back community.

Stop Looting!!!!

'alleged'

I don't see a problem here. That's what they should be doing!

Yeah. Key word. Looters.
