News article: Menu NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — After Thursday Walgreens shooting involving a pregnant woman and Walgreens employee, the family says she and her baby are both in stable condition. She had three surgeries after being shoot eight times; four times in the stomach and two times in each leg. Her baby is in the NICU, only weighs two pounds. On Thursday a woman was in critical condition and required an emergency C-Section birth after she was shot by a Walgreens employee who was maced Wednesday night during a confrontation over reportedly stolen items. Homicide Unit detectives with the Metro Nashville Police Department are investigating the shooting, which happened outside of a Walgreens store in the 2500 block of Gallatin Avenue just before 8 p.m. The preliminary investigation of the shooting shows that 21-year-old Mitarius Boyd, the Walgreens team leader at that store, was informed by coworker that two females were stealing items from the store. Boyd told police he saw the women putting items into a shopping cart and personal bag before exiting the store without paying. Boyd also told officers that he was recording the women with his cell phone as he followed them out of the store and to the vehicle they were unloading the items into. The report from Metro police says Boyd went to the back of the vehicle where the women were when one of them began spraying mace at him. Boyd says he pulled out a semi-automatic pistol as he was being maced and began firing shots, claiming he was in fear because he didn't know if they were armed. The women took off in the car, and Boyd called 911 from inside the Walgreens store. Travonsha Ferguson, 34, was shot during the altercation and taken to General Hospital by the other woman, who drove away after dropping her off and remains unidentified by police. Ferguson was transported by ambulance to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for treatment. Ferguson was pregnant at the time of the shooting, so an emergency C-Section had to be performed. The infant was not injured by the gunshots. Both Ferguson and her baby are in critical but stable condition, says Metro police. Boyd cooperated with detectives during the investigation. Investigators seized his gun used in the shooting and have taken possession of his cell phone. Detectives will share the results of their investigation with the District Attorney's office to determine if Boyd will face charges. Walgreens provided the following statement Thursday in regards to the shooting: "The safety of our patients, customers and team members is our top priority, and violence of any kind will not be tolerated at our stores. We take this matter seriously and are cooperating with local authorities." User comment:

Steal, Law, Consequences
Maybe don’t steal though? I mean this whole series of events is insane and unwarranted, I absolutely understand that, but like also don’t break laws and out yourself in situations that came lead to unknown consequences? Edit: accused is not guilty. I was not in any way shape or form defending the shooter in this story.

Fear, Armed, Training, Policy, Idiots
>claiming he was in fear because he didn't know if they were armed Then why did you follow them to their car? Companies have training and I guarantee Walgreens says not to pursue people and to just observe and report. Plus I am pretty sure Walgreens has a zero weapons at work policy like most companies. All these people are idiots.

Homicide Unit detectives with the Metro Nashville Police Department are investigating the shooting, which happened outside of a Walgreens store in the 2500 block of Gallatin Avenue just before 8 p.m. The preliminary investigation of the shooting shows that 21-year-old Mitarius Boyd, the Walgreens team leader at that store, was informed by coworker that two females were stealing items from the store. Boyd told police he saw the women putting items into a shopping cart and personal bag before exiting the store without paying. Boyd also told officers that he was recording the women with his cell phone as he followed them out of the store and to the vehicle they were unloading the items into. The report from Metro police says Boyd went to the back of the vehicle where the women were when one of them began spraying mace at him. Boyd says he pulled out a semi-automatic pistol as he was being maced and began firing shots, claiming he was in fear because he didn't know if they were armed. The women took off in the car, and Boyd called 911 from inside the Walgreens store. Travonsha Ferguson, 34, was shot during the altercation and taken to General Hospital by the other woman, who drove away after dropping her off and remains unidentified by police. Ferguson was transported by ambulance to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for treatment. Ferguson was pregnant at the time of the shooting, so an emergency C-Section had to be performed. The infant was not injured by the gunshots. Both Ferguson and her baby are in critical but stable condition, says Metro police. Boyd cooperated with detectives during the investigation. Investigators seized his gun used in the shooting and have taken possession of his cell phone. Detectives will share the results of their investigation with the District Attorney's office to determine if Boyd will face charges.

Title, Confusing, Shoplift
The title is confusing. I couldn’t figure out how someone could shoplift a shot.
News article: Menu NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — After Thursday Walgreens shooting involving a pregnant woman and Walgreens employee, the family says she and her baby are both in stable condition. She had three surgeries after being shoot eight times; four times in the stomach and two times in each leg. Her baby is in the NICU, only weighs two pounds. On Thursday a woman was in critical condition and required an emergency C-Section birth after she was shot by a Walgreens employee who was maced Wednesday night during a confrontation over reportedly stolen items. Homicide Unit detectives with the Metro Nashville Police Department are investigating the shooting, which happened outside of a Walgreens store in the 2500 block of Gallatin Avenue just before 8 p.m. The preliminary investigation of the shooting shows that 21-year-old Mitarius Boyd, the Walgreens team leader at that store, was informed by coworker that two females were stealing items from the store. Boyd told police he saw the women putting items into a shopping cart and personal bag before exiting the store without paying. Boyd also told officers that he was recording the women with his cell phone as he followed them out of the store and to the vehicle they were unloading the items into. The report from Metro police says Boyd went to the back of the vehicle where the women were when one of them began spraying mace at him. Boyd says he pulled out a semi-automatic pistol as he was being maced and began firing shots, claiming he was in fear because he didn't know if they were armed. The women took off in the car, and Boyd called 911 from inside the Walgreens store. Travonsha Ferguson, 34, was shot during the altercation and taken to General Hospital by the other woman, who drove away after dropping her off and remains unidentified by police. Ferguson was transported by ambulance to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for treatment. Ferguson was pregnant at the time of the shooting, so an emergency C-Section had to be performed.

Lax, Gun laws, GOP, Legislature, Concealed weapon, Right to carry
Can we just stop a second and acknowledge Tennessee 's lax gun laws made this possible? The GOP legislature in Nashville passed a law that said companies, not even bars, can prevent a concealed weapon permit holder from carrying a gun. So no matter what the company's policy is, the State of Tennessee says the employee has a right to carry his gun anywhere...including outside of a school or in a bar while drinking.

I think the title should include the macing but the employee is still a dumbass for caring about insured items that much to follow a customer to their car.
News article: Menu NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — After Thursday Walgreens shooting involving a pregnant woman and Walgreens employee, the family says she and her baby are both in stable condition. She had three surgeries after being shoot eight times; four times in the stomach and two times in each leg. Her baby is in the NICU, only weighs two pounds. On Thursday a woman was in critical condition and required an emergency C-Section birth after she was shot by a Walgreens employee who was maced Wednesday night during a confrontation over reportedly stolen items. Homicide Unit detectives with the Metro Nashville Police Department are investigating the shooting, which happened outside of a Walgreens store in the 2500 block of Gallatin Avenue just before 8 p.m. The preliminary investigation of the shooting shows that 21-year-old Mitarius Boyd, the Walgreens team leader at that store, was informed by coworker that two females were stealing items from the store. Boyd told police he saw the women putting items into a shopping cart and personal bag before exiting the store without paying. Boyd also told officers that he was recording the women with his cell phone as he followed them out of the store and to the vehicle they were unloading the items into. The report from Metro police says Boyd went to the back of the vehicle where the women were when one of them began spraying mace at him. Boyd says he pulled out a semi-automatic pistol as he was being maced and began firing shots, claiming he was in fear because he didn't know if they were armed. The women took off in the car, and Boyd called 911 from inside the Walgreens store. Travonsha Ferguson, 34, was shot during the altercation and taken to General Hospital by the other woman, who drove away after dropping her off and remains unidentified by police. Ferguson was transported by ambulance to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for treatment. Ferguson was pregnant at the time of the shooting, so an emergency C-Section had to be performed. The infant was not injured by the gunshots. Both Ferguson and her baby are in critical but stable condition, says Metro police. Boyd cooperated with detectives during the investigation.

Absolutely wild. This employee is waaaay out of line. Even if they stole something it's stupid to confront them by their vehicle. I know it doesn't matter, but I'd love to know what was allegedly stolen that was so worth this EMPLOYEE (not even the owner)to feel the need to bring a gun to work and be willing to shoot and possibly kill someone.

Homicide Unit detectives with the Metro Nashville Police Department are investigating the shooting, which happened outside of a Walgreens store in the 2500 block of Gallatin Avenue just before 8 p.m. The preliminary investigation of the shooting shows that 21-year-old Mitarius Boyd, the Walgreens team leader at that store, was informed by coworker that two females were stealing items from the store. Boyd told police he saw the women putting items into a shopping cart and personal bag before exiting the store without paying. Boyd also told officers that he was recording the women with his cell phone as he followed them out of the store and to the vehicle they were unloading the items into. The report from Metro police says Boyd went to the back of the vehicle where the women were when one of them began spraying mace at him. Boyd says he pulled out a semi-automatic pistol as he was being maced and began firing shots, claiming he was in fear because he didn't know if they were armed. The women took off in the car, and Boyd called 911 from inside the Walgreens store. Travonsha Ferguson, 34, was shot during the altercation and taken to General Hospital by the other woman, who drove away after dropping her off and remains unidentified by police. Ferguson was transported by ambulance to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for treatment. Ferguson was pregnant at the time of the shooting, so an emergency C-Section had to be performed. The infant was not injured by the gunshots. Both Ferguson and her baby are in critical but stable condition, says Metro police. Boyd cooperated with detectives during the investigation. Investigators seized his gun used in the shooting and have taken possession of his cell phone. Detectives will share the results of their investigation with the District Attorney's office to determine if Boyd will face charges.

Listen, I'm not a fan of theft. But even IF she was stealing, shooting someone is going way too far. Especially when you work for a giant national corp who doesn't really care in the end. Its not like this is your own mom and pop store where if someone stole it would mean your life might be screwed.

Boyd also told officers that he was recording the women with his cell phone as he followed them out of the store and to the vehicle they were unloading the items into. The report from Metro police says Boyd went to the back of the vehicle where the women were when one of them began spraying mace at him. Boyd says he pulled out a semi-automatic pistol as he was being maced and began firing shots, claiming he was in fear because he didn't know if they were armed. The women took off in the car, and Boyd called 911 from inside the Walgreens store. Travonsha Ferguson, 34, was shot during the altercation and taken to General Hospital by the other woman, who drove away after dropping her off and remains unidentified by police. Ferguson was transported by ambulance to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for treatment. Ferguson was pregnant at the time of the shooting, so an emergency C-Section had to be performed. The infant was not injured by the gunshots. Both Ferguson and her baby are in critical but stable condition, says Metro police. Boyd cooperated with detectives during the investigation. Investigators seized his gun used in the shooting and have taken possession of his cell phone. Detectives will share the results of their investigation with the District Attorney's office to determine if Boyd will face charges. Walgreens provided the following statement Thursday in regards to the shooting: "The safety of our patients, customers and team members is our top priority, and violence of any kind will not be tolerated at our stores. We take this matter seriously and are cooperating with local authorities." User comment:
Sentence, Training, Legal fees, Liability
“The infant was not injured by the gunshots.” Holy shit I hate this sentence. Unrelated to the horror of this particular situation, this is exactly why these stores tell and train their employees and managers to not chase people out of the store. One of my best friends was a cvs manager back in college and he’s like “3 boxes of tampons and a bottle of wine at cost are nothing compared to the legal fees and liability payments. We discourage shoplifting, but we’re all told to just call the cops because it’s a drop in the bucket compared to lives.” This is why. I’m not blaming the manager without knowing details, but I imagine they were trained to do otherwise.

Boyd told police he saw the women putting items into a shopping cart and personal bag before exiting the store without paying. Boyd also told officers that he was recording the women with his cell phone as he followed them out of the store and to the vehicle they were unloading the items into. The report from Metro police says Boyd went to the back of the vehicle where the women were when one of them began spraying mace at him. Boyd says he pulled out a semi-automatic pistol as he was being maced and began firing shots, claiming he was in fear because he didn't know if they were armed. The women took off in the car, and Boyd called 911 from inside the Walgreens store. Travonsha Ferguson, 34, was shot during the altercation and taken to General Hospital by the other woman, who drove away after dropping her off and remains unidentified by police. Ferguson was transported by ambulance to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for treatment. Ferguson was pregnant at the time of the shooting, so an emergency C-Section had to be performed. The infant was not injured by the gunshots. Both Ferguson and her baby are in critical but stable condition, says Metro police. Boyd cooperated with detectives during the investigation. Investigators seized his gun used in the shooting and have taken possession of his cell phone. Detectives will share the results of their investigation with the District Attorney's office to determine if Boyd will face charges. Walgreens provided the following statement Thursday in regards to the shooting: "The safety of our patients, customers and team members is our top priority, and violence of any kind will not be tolerated at our stores. We take this matter seriously and are cooperating with local authorities." User comment:
Trigger happy, Security guard, Shoplifting, Second Amendment
Just another Trigger Happy Day in america. This isn't the first time that a security guard has taken Liberties and executed a customer for shoplifting. I'm sure the Republican Christian conservatives will want to protect a Second Amendment right and call him a hero.

Retail wages, Shoplifting, Life_value
If I worked retail and got paid retail wages, I wouldn’t care if someone is shoplifting, at least not enough to follow them to their car where they could shoot or run me over. My life (and frankly their lives as well) is worth more than $50 in diapers or whatever they were trying to steal from a Walgreens.

Hands off, Training, Confrontation, SOP, Norm
I was AP for Target during grad school. We were entirely hands off with one exception, the manager had been through training and could actually confront people if required, but it still wasn’t really a thing that happened. I worked with other local big boxes who all had essentially the same SoP. This is not the norm by any means.

Company policy, Legal, Employee rights, Gun policy, Altercation, Shoplifting, Justice system, Civil lawsuit
It is not only company policy for basically every single retail store in the country, I'm fairly certain it is illegal, as an employee, to follow someone out of a store, even if you believe they were shoplifting. Then again, I'm not a lawyer, sooo. grain of salt I guess. The man will almost certainly lose his job because store policy is designed to prevent EXACTLY this kind of altercation. From the sound of it, he wanted to play an action hero because he brought is gun to work that day (another thing that is almost certainly against store policy, in order to prevent exactly this kind of altercation) Given our shithole justice system, The now no longer pregnant woman will still probably face jail time for the shoplifting (if proven), despite having been shot by an employee. Could win a civil lawsuit against the company for the trouble though.

Read beyond the headline. The employee confronted her for shoplifting, she attacked with mace, then he shot her. Shoplifting was the start but not the reason why she was shot.

Corporate policy, Engage, Safety, Acknowledge, Sensors, Bystanders, Pictures, Police, Job responsibility
I'm a pharmacy tech with Walgreens. This is so against corporate policy. First off we're not supposed to engage. Period. They can acknowledge someone by saying "hi may I help you find something?" but they can't directly accuse them. Second we're not allowed to follow them from the store. Even if the sensors go off. Even if we literally see the person put the items in their bag while making eye contact. We aren't allowed to acknowledge them at all. Third going outside is a massive no no. Not just for employee safety but because of the safety of bystanders. Who knows what would happen if the person was actually robbing the store? Fourth is we can't get plate numbers or film them at all. No pictures either. Even if it helps the police. There are so many other reasons why this isn't okay from a corporate perspective. I have no idea why this idiot when after the woman. We're literally told just let these people leave and call the cops when they're long gone. That's it. Edit: Obviously I mean wrong on a job level. This woman wouldn't have been shot if the employee just stayed inside. Even if she did steal the risk isn't worth it. He wouldn't have been maced and she wouldn't have been shot if he didn't engage. It isn't worth it.

Boyd says he pulled out a semi-automatic pistol as he was being maced and began firing shots, claiming he was in fear because he didn't know if they were armed. The women took off in the car, and Boyd called 911 from inside the Walgreens store. Travonsha Ferguson, 34, was shot during the altercation and taken to General Hospital by the other woman, who drove away after dropping her off and remains unidentified by police. Ferguson was transported by ambulance to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for treatment. Ferguson was pregnant at the time of the shooting, so an emergency C-Section had to be performed. The infant was not injured by the gunshots. Both Ferguson and her baby are in critical but stable condition, says Metro police. Boyd cooperated with detectives during the investigation. Investigators seized his gun used in the shooting and have taken possession of his cell phone. Detectives will share the results of their investigation with the District Attorney's office to determine if Boyd will face charges.

Criminal, Excuse, Unborn child, Commenters
If only that woman cared as much about her unborn child as commenters here care about trying to excuse a shit bag criminal who thought it was smarter to mace someone than just stop the car and drop all the shit she stole. But nah..it's Walgreens so they deserve to be stolen from, amirite?

Walgreens, Cashier, Shoplifting, Excuse, Shoot
I'm just thinking about how I worked at Walgreens as a cashier in high school and to this day, decades later, it's still the worst job I ever had. Worse than digging ditches, worse than working in a sweltering factory, worse than making cold-calls. The idea that this cashier could give enough shits about Walgreens to care whether someone shoplifted is not believable. He just wanted an excuse to shoot someone.

Job, Self defense, Confrontation, Reasonable fear
So from reading the article... dude is definitely out of a job, but the shoot itself if it happened as described is not an unreasonable claim for self defense. He will have to fight it though, because there's going to be the argument made that he 'forced' a confrontation by pursuing them. Could he have avoided direct confrontation by keeping his distance? Maybe. Maybe not. He could have also done nothing, and still been in trouble because he elected to let shoplifters continue to shoplift. Feels bad because there was a baby on board, and any loss of life is a tragedy, but I'm on the side that he was in reasonable fear of further attack, if things happened the way he described them.

Fired, Retail policies, Gun, Shoplifter, GOP, Gun nuts
1) This guy's getting fired. As a former retail worker, I'm pretty sure he violated at least half a dozen company policies, the least of which is having a gun on the premises (regardless of his permit status) and confronting a shoplifter. Most retail establishments have policies strictly forbidding this, for the safety of the employees. 2) He's going to become a darling of the GOP and the gun nuts.
