CVS worker fatally stabs attempted shoplifter at Midtown store

Criminal get's instant justice!
Probably a punk who thought he would be allowed to take what he wanted.

Afight between a CVS security guard and a man attempting to shoplift from a Midtown branch of the chain turned deadly Thursday when the employee knifed the thief in the torso — after the crook knocked him to the ground, according to family — cops and police sources said. Security guard Scotty Enoe confronted a man trying to steal goods near the door of the CVS pharmacy on Broadway near W. 49th St., according to authorities and Enoe’s mother, who spoke with him over the phone while he was in custody.

It's a sad world we live in where the victim is blamed and the criminal is excused.

I could see that happening at my local CVS except the assailant would be shot.

CVS policies are to blame. They and Walgreens have encouraged this with their lax policies along with local govt.

Good. One less criminal loser using up society’s resources.

And others such as Walmart. They've instituted these policies of not confronting shoplifters. Once there is no fear, obviously shoplifting was going to increase, especially when you have these 'woke' DA's who are not going to prosecute.

Yep.

The Pride crowd came out in Philly after a Trans was caught murdering 5 people and tried to claim that THEY were under attack from MAGA.

Same thing with the Nashville shooter.

Just how many idiots actually bought that BS?

Anyone who buys that ridiculous nonsense should have their sanity questioned.

Walmart is just trying to keep their employees safe from being arrested by crooked Democrats.

Install automated security barrier, lock the thieves in, notify police, assume defensive position.

Eventually thieves will avoid stores with conspicuous automated security barriers.

You can bet the family of the stabbed guy and the stabers family both vote dem.
I would never live somewhere where defending myself or family could lead to imprisonment.

While it would be expensive it sure beats getting ripped off on a daily basis.
I'm guessing you're thinking of locking the thief in an airlock type door system where the thief is contained.

There was a story about a guy running a convenience store that locked the thief in the store while he was protected behind bullet proof glass.
The thief told the clerk to open the door or he was going to shoot the three customers still in the store. The clerf refused and the guy killed all three customers.
All over few bucks worth of merchandise.

The clerk should have been armed.

Wherever you live "it's better to be judged by twelve than carried by six."

A lot of places forbid that.
Better yet all of the customers should have been armed.

I'd rather live somewhere you have a right to protect yourself.

Sweet, theft is now a capital offense. That should cut down on repeat offenders.

I live in one of the most liberal cities in the country so as a conservative I keep a low profile. I do carry concealed, however.

Thats gotta suck!!
You're damned if you do and damned if you dont in self defense situations.
Hell,a lot of the far left places wont even let you carry mace.

We don't have mass shootings here, just blacks killing other blacks, maybe a half-dozen each year. So being white and not involved in drugs makes me pretty safe.
