Man dies in custody of Walmart security...

Security apprehended a shoplifter after fighting with him in the parking lot of a Southern Cali Walmart. By the time the police got there, the Lt stated the suspect was detained and in serious need of medical assistance. The officers on the scene then called paramedics to the sight and in route to the hospital the suspect was pronounced dead. This all happened over the theft of a bottle of body wash and clothing. Its hard to say if the security went too far because they may have been trying to detain him when the suspect began to fight.... then there is the possibility that the store security just went too far. I guess at the end of the day.... remember not to steal anything from Walmart!

  1. I was under the impression that laws stipulated security guards weren't to detain thieves in that situation anyways... they're not police and law for a citizens arrest is you've gotta see an individual committing a felony. if a bottle of soap is worth a persons life in california then there ain't no love out there.
