If you work in a Nike warehouse, then you are surrounded by some very expensive sneakers. Overall, Nike is the biggest sportswear brand in the entire world. They have dozens upon dozens of different silhouettes to choose from. Additionally, they have a whole plethora of colorways for those silhouettes. Needless to say, a single warehouse can be filled with thousands of dollars of merchandise, and that would be an underestimate. Regardless, Nike understands this and tries its best to protect its warehouses.
Unfortunately, there are lots of people out there who have some nefarious motivations. These motivations could lead them to lie, cheat, and in the case of our next story, steal. According to numerous viral videos on Twitter, a Nike warehouse in Memphis was robbed in broad daylight. Moreover, a video of the entire ordeal was posted to social media and is now drawing a ton of attention. Overall, it is a bad look for everyone involved. Furthermore, people are looking for answers that simply are not readily available right now.
Nike Warehouse Robbery
In the video clip above, you can see the warehouse being ransacked by a few individuals. There are all sorts of boxes being moved around, however, it is hard to track who has what. Meanwhile, a plethora of employees attempted to thwart the robbery as they got in harm's way. Some employees even found themselves in physical altercations with those who were attempting to rob the warehouse. At this point, there is no information as to how many perpetrators were involved. Additionally, the amount of goods stolen is also unknown. No matter what, it is an unfortunate situation that Nike will certainly be investigating soon.
As for law enforcement, there doesn't seem to be much in the way of information from them either. Overall, this is a story that is only in the midst of developing. Either way, we hope all of the employees are doing okay as this could have been exceptionally dangerous for all involved.
