“After all of that and not even one person tried to take this guy down!”

Everyone was too busy taking a photo for that “People of Walmart” website.

Merry Christmas, and Welcome to WalMart. Watch for falling prices.

The guy had on a baseball cap and a black bandana but the witness could tell it was a white guy?

Officials said there is no longer a threat, but it is very early in the investigation. >>>> works for me

Heard over the stores PA system: Clean up in aisle 30.

Kind of a lousy terrorist. Going into a Walmart in the middle of the night is not going to get you a lot of targets.

Sorry, only ten virgins for this guy.

Felz turned to look and saw a man with a black handgun in his left hand and a machete in his right walking down the last aisle.

“He was walking away from us down the aisle holding the gun to his head. He threw a backpack he was carrying to the side. Then he got to the end of the aisle, he turned right and pointed the gun, like around the corner. I heard a click, like a misfire or a BB gun go off,” Felz said.

At that point, heavily armed officers from the Stroud Area Regional Police “carrying shotguns with shells across their chests,” rushed into the store while everyone else rushed out, the witness said. Police evacuated people from the store.

Felz described the man as a white male in his early 20s, about 5 feet 7 inches tall, wearing a black baseball hat, a black bandanna over his face and a black shirt and jeans.

I service this store(DiGiorno Pizza/Haagen Dazs ice cream), thankfully I never go into the store while it is dark outside. Still, scary. I don’t service this particular store on a Saturday, and I happened to be off anyway. I’ll have to send this to my boss.

Heh!
“White male.”

That’s how they first described the cowardly murderous muslim terrorists in San Bernardino.

Walmarts attract bottom feeders. Big time. There will be armed guards in them soon, I suspect. And more bad neighborhood store closings. They tried cutting some middle of the night hours in USA, but reneged on that. In Canada, they’re only open like 8am to 10 pm.

Still not much info but from a person's comments "It happened so fast," he added. "You don't know what's going to happen."

Nobody expects to be involved in something like this because it always happens to someone else....until it happens to you.

Odds are i can carry for another 20 years and never need a weapon, but "it all happens so fast and one never knows..."
