Man Kidnaps Child In Walmart - Shot Dead By Police Midwest City, Oklahoma: Midwest City Police have released surveillance video from a Walmart of a man who took a 2-year-old girl from a mother's shopping cart, and held a knife to the child's throat. Police Chief Brandon Clabes held a news conference Friday morning to reveal new details about the June 17 officer-involved shooting. Capt. David Huff shot and killed 37-year-old Sammie Lamont Wallace after he threatened the little girl.

The video released shows Wallace walking into the Walmart Neighborhood Market at Reno and Midwest Boulevard around 3 p.m. He's pushing a shopping cart and talking on a cell phone. The video shows Wallace circling the store until he sees a woman, identified as Alicia Keating, and her two daughters, ages 12 and 2. Wallace keeps walking but circles back to the frozen food aisle. While Keating's back is turned, Wallace grabs the child from the cart while the stunned 12 year old looks on. Wallace then walks up to the mother, hands her a cell phone and demands she call a police officer in Dallas. Keating begins to scream and pleads for the man to give her child back. The man pulls out a knife and threatens the little girl. That's when store employees approach the man and witnesses begin calling 911.

The Midwest City Police Department is just across the street from the store, and officers arrive within a minute. They quickly evacuate the store, including the little girl's mother. Chief Clabes says officers tried to negotiate with Wallace for more than half an hour. They eventually contacted the police officer in Texas he wanted to speak with, and the officer said Wallace had been harassing him.

He has this complex he thinks he’s the next Lincoln. He thinks that Lincoln could get away with a whole bunch of stuff during that time because of the upheaval. He wants his own upheaval to totally enact stuff that could never get passed, or take another 60 years of incrementalism. He wants it done in 1-2 years and this will be the excuse to get rid of - or at least try to - get rid of 25 million genuine American patriots.

Why would a man kidnap a dead child?

If that was Obama leading, the kid would have died and he would have sent Susan Rice out to blame the failure on a video from Youtube while he went to Vegas to party with Jay-Z.

In all honesty, I don’t think this is going to end well.

They shot him in the head because he deserved it. He had an innocent two year old child sitting on his lap and getting him right in the head forces his arms to drop considering he is dead on impact. If he was tazed/shot in another area of the body- he is still capable of moving his arms freely, which had a KNIFE in it, thus causing potential harm to the child.

Ah, that was the point of my post (a week ago).

According to an affidavit for a search warrant, Wallace began speaking about the Illuminati, a satanic cult, while holding the girl and pointing at knife at her. Police say they quickly did some research and learned June 21 is a day of human sacrifice for the Illuminati.

Police say they tried to negotiate with Wallace, but when he made threatening moves toward they child, they had to respond with deadly force.

Police say Capt. David Huff shot and killed Wallace to prevent him from hurting the toddler. Capt. Huff is a 22-year veteran and has been with the Midwest City Police Department since January 1991.

The girl who was held hostage has not been identified.

Police say the investigation is ongoing. Detectives have searched Wallace’s home at the Parkview Apartments at 2701 Turley Drive. Wallace had lived in the apartment since January. During the search, police seized an OG&E bill, a bank statement and a notebook filled with religious writings.
