On Wednesday, May 16, 2018, at approximately 9:57 PM, the Vidor Police Department received a phone call from Walmart located at 1360 N. Main in Vidor in reference to a theft in progress. The caller advised dispatch that a white -male was attempting to return merchandise that he had removed from a shelf inside the store. While attempting to detain this individual, the white male attempted to elude the loss prevention officer and other employees by running from the store. During this process he ran over and knocked over an employee and shopper, raising the theft charge to a robbery charge.
As the responding officer was arriving, he saw the suspect running from the store. The officer gave chase as well as two good Samaritans. The officer found the suspect who then jumped over a fence to avoid the officer. The suspect was found lying on the other side of the fence with an ankle and scrotum injury. The suspect was detained and was admitted into the hospital. The suspects name is being with-held pending the warrant and on-going investigation.
Maybe he needs to be castrated and eliminate some of his problems.
He may have been !!
Note to fence jumper— reel ’em in before jumping or pick a lower fence.
Never heard of that happening at Krogers????
My husband was in the Kroger parking lot
On a Saturday afternoon at 1:30 and a young man attempted to pick his pocket while he was emptying
Groceries from the cart to the trunk. My husband’s quick thinking (he decked him) resulted in the Perps subsequent arrest. Kroger is not exempt from robberies.
That’s nuts!
