Gloria Gomez reports
TAMPA, Fla. - Last summer, a mob broke into a CVS pharmacy on Fowler Avenue. They raided CVS as employees left the scene.
The looters trashed the store and stole whatever they could get their hands on.
Prosecutors identified Promise Goodwine as one of the looters after catching her on store surveillance video. She was arrested and now faces several criminal charges.
Goodwine protested against police brutality last summer and continued her activism while she was out on bond. But she got into more legal hot water and was thrown in jail again after two driving infractions and battery charges.
