Why they were not among those to be bestowed wands once freed from their cells was lost on this lot. As far as they were concerned the odds simply had not been in their favor and the duo who had been giving them had simply run out. They would be mistaken, but they were just small crime thieves and resembled muggle thugs with their choice of weaponry as they stormed the shop.
While two flanked off from the group to ransack the display shelves and retrieve whatever they could use to threaten the shopkeeper - not limited to the chairs and potted plants - another charged at the man behind the counter while waving their bats and crowbars to incapacitate him. Or crack a skull. They wouldn't be picky.
Three more had a jacket with its sleeves tied in such a way as to work as a bag and launched himself towards the shelves to pull boxes containing wands from them and into the fabric. Though his haphazard and reckless movements were causing far more to spill to the floor than into the actual make-shift sack.
