In what was initially thought to be the poorer parts of London which were being condemned to the terrible levels of destruction, carnage, arson attacks, violence and looting, parts of Sloane Square and Pimlico Road have now come under the anarchy of roaming gangs hell bent on causing damage to property and frightening the locals.
Designer shops in Sloane Square, such as Hugo Boss, had their windows smashed as looters attempted to raid the stores.
A video the looted Hugo Boss store in Sloane Square is now circling YouTube.
As a result the tube station was closed down to prevent innocent people getting caught in the escalating problem.
