If you look carefully, this is a pic of the hawkers on the street. They are not selling their goods but fleeing because of the municipal raid in the area. If caught, their goods will be confiscated. Onnce they come to know the municipal officials have left, they all come back to their respective spots to earn a daily living.

Much the same happens here with the street hawkers. Although even more so across the border in Italy. They always have a 'lookout' who warns them when an official is about to appear.
