Obviously.

They were stationed on the bridge to prevent people from crossing. It doesn't take a huge leap of faith to believe that they stole food and water, but again, believe what you want.

I did some googling and found a statement by someone alleging to have been there. Apprarently, the Gretna Police came down to tell them once again to get off of the bridge and that is when they said they took their food and water.

I do not understand why they would have taken the food and water when they had their own. It makes no sense - thus it is a huge leap of faith for me to get that. But, to each their own.

Hopefully, someone has photos of it.
