Students trash Chicago Walmart during gun control walkout.

On Wednesday, Chicago police say that dozens of students from Simeon Career Academy vandalized and stole from a Walmart while they were supposed to be out protesting gun violence.

Employees and shoppers were stunned by the out of control students and the amount of destruction that they caused at the Walmart located on the South Side of Chicago. Fox 32 :

Police say between 40 and 60 of those students crossed the street and trashed parts of the store, knocking over product displays, yanking items off shelves, breaking packages, and stealing small items like chips and candy.

One upstanding member of the community black student says, "They told us we could come outside for, like, 17 minutes. And we just took it upon ourselves to go over there to Walmart, and it got out of hand."

"I was over there, but...I wasn't doin' nuthin' I wasn't supposed to do"
