Louisiana man crashes car thru front doors of Target — Leaves ‘explosive’ package and runs

Video posted on social media Friday afternoon shows a man drive his SUV through the front windows of the Target in Hammond, stopping after the vehicle plows into a cashier's station.

Customers are then heard shouting that people should get out of the store.

Police confirmed later Friday that a suspect drove into the Target and dropped a suspicious package while running through the store.

The same man also dropped suspicious packages in at least three other locations, including one other site in the Hammond Square shopping center, in addition to Dollar General on Wardline Road and Sanderson Farms, a chicken processing plant on U.S. 190 also in Hammond, police said.

Update: Suspect in Hammond Target bomb threat identified; witness describes chaotic scene: 'It was awful'

"Walter Allbritton III, 41, of Ponchatoula who's accused of leaving a possible explosive device inside the store before he was taken into police custody. He's now facing a litany of arrest counts, including terrorism and terrorizing.

A person who appears to be Allbritton posted a video on Facebook that appears to show him crashing into the Target. The video shows him referencing President Donald Trump, though it's difficult to discern the context of what he says due to loud music playing in the background.

After the crash, the man says, “You’re going to have to kill me, just like y’all do everybody else.”

I’m wondering if Target has been threatened.

My wife said none of the checkout lanes were manned last Sunday. Everything was self serve.

Makes one think they were expecting something.

[BenLurkin]

“Suspicious packages” at Target.

[lee martell]

Why are ‘they’ giving Target a hard time?
That store has bent over backwards to be PC.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Thanks media...thanks a lot.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

This is war folks!

These people really think their doing noble deeds with their terrorism also.

3 or 4 incidents like this in every community and the entire nation plummets.

“New Oldsmobiles are in early this year”.

[Pollard]

antifa talking him into it?

Add this to three suspicious fires today. Amazon warehouse, a ship off of FL that firefighters happened to be inspecting at the time(firefighters injured - I imagine they failed the inspection) and some Cali forest fires, two in custody.

But hey, the riots have calmed down a bit /s

Makes me wonder if the whole million protesters/rioters in DC thing is a fake out. Hey, look over there. Might be an interesting weekend.

weekend
week
month
5 months
and maybe another four years

Apparently, according to the article, the guy worked at Target.

[bgill]

Hmm, a protest has been scheduled down from our Walmart. This week, that WM went to all self serve.

[csvset]

I wonder if he was high, tripping on something.

Yes, according to some retired generals and admiral(s), there is nothing to see here except "peaceful protests" and any attempt at the federal level to stop the NATION WIDE riots/looting/arson would be unconstitutional.

Historically...

Past presidents have invoked the Insurrection Act 19 times, both with the request of the Governor of the affected state, and without their request. Note that every one of those 19 previous invocations of the act, were due to violence or disorder in a single city or single state/territory. President Trump invoking the act due to NATION WIDE violence, looting, arson and depravity of civil rights is certainly lawful and warranted.

Notice something about the incidents where the states did NOT ask for help, but the feds went in anyway? ALL having to do with race/race relations.

They showed weakness. In my town a chain pharmacy had placed jersey barriers by all the doors the day prior to a planned protest.

Why are ‘they’ giving Target a hard time? That store has bent over backwards to be PC!

My wife is/was a great RN. Her gifts are the ability recognize trends/shifts in patient illnesses that showed up in her office, other offices in their group, and in the community, re variances versus past norms. She is well aware of how Target’s top management has been uber liberal basically forever. Now Target is a prime target of the rioters and thieves on a massive scale. That has led Target to closing over a hundred stores or limiting the hours they are open across America. She would like to know what has happened to Make Target a Target of today’s rioting thugs.

If the federales haven’t quietly added security at critical infrastructure, they’re idiots.

But Trump is the sort of guy who would ask the question, just hope there are people in his circle who can give an honest answer.

[BradyLS]

A lot of places are turning themselves into pretzels these days. Won’t help them. Once the glass breaks, all the goodwill they worked so hard to build vanishes.
