Kansas Self-Defense: Walmart customers hold suspected purse thief at gunpoint :: 06/02/2016
Wichita police say a woman was loading groceries into her car in the parking lot of the store near Kellogg and Greenwich when a man walked by, snatched her purse out of the front of her cart and ran off.
Other customers who witnessed the purse-snatching chased the man. One customer, carrying a firearm, caught the man and held him at gunpoint until police arrived. The man was arrested for the theft.
The woman whose purse was taken by the man said she was appreciative of the assistance from the customers who helped her catch the suspected thief.
