Sad to say, but I bet the store gets sued.

He was cut while in a scuffle with security. Meijer yesterday was questioned by reporters about store policy of confronting shoplifters.

There was a story recently about Home Depot firing an employee for tackling a shoplifter.

No doubt, civil liability is a factor for these policies.

Suing the store was the first thing I thought he’d do, and was surprised to go through the thread and not seeing it mentioned. Thankfully in the post #15 you covered the topic and returned the thread back to the reality (not sure if I need to put /s here).
