It was suggested in feedback that we should look into the London Riots.

Research into the London Riots further proves the reasoning why I initially didn't look into it - the riots were caused by an unjust death in the black community by a police officer who claimed the boy was armed when he was not. While the riots did include theft or 'looting', it was in protest rather than an organised robbery/burglary that was not provoked.

However, I thought that the stereotype of young teenagers in black hoodies is relevant in crimes that involve theft such as the London Riots and is something that I think should be subverted in my film as I don't personally identify with black hoodie gang members.
