I just saw, and heard, a woman threaten to shoot a Walmart greeter. She was headed out the door with a cart with several bags of dogfood on the lower shelf and 3 small children in tow. The greeter was following her saying, “Ma’am! Ma’am!” If a cart has stuff on the bottom, dog food, water, etc., the greeters are instructed to check them to make sure they weren’t missed at checkout. At that point, the woman turned around and said, “If you follow me out of here, I’ll shoot you!” A police officer who was already at the store caught up with her before she got to her car. They arrested her for outstanding warrants and making a terroristic threat, and called CPS for the children. They took witness statements from me and another bystander.

She did have a gun in her purse.
