Keep up the good fight! Write to walmart corp if you need to.
I went and made a request for the LEO report and my statement. The statement from everyone else is considered private information. I requested the video footage and the woman at the desk told me that there was none. I told her that there was video footage, that I watched it...she just looked at me with a blank stare...gotta love Bureaucracies.
This is a police officer not wanting to follow up on this case.
I repeated this to the Sgt. about pressing charges. He said that the man acted within the law. And that it wasn't unreasonable. I always thought it was the judges responsibility to determine whether it was reasonable or not, the officer just writes the citation.
Oh and not nit-picky. I don't care if Smith, Wesson, Benelli and Bernie Mac handed me back my weapon telling me it was clear, I'd still check it.
I do not shop there and cannot believe anyone else does.
I hope you take them for some loot.They have plenty.

You will still need to go through the police to get the video from the store. As an Asset Protection manager here in Utah I sometimes deal with situations similar to yours. The store has a legal obligation to preserve any video in a case such as yours but only has to give it to the police or lawyers if they serve a subpoena. I can assure you if the incident happened anywhere near the entrance or exit doors it was captured on at least 2 cameras. The employee who stopped you will lose his job as only salaried managers or asset protection associates are allowed to make a apprehension. Even though I work for the same company if everything you said is true then I hope you take them to the cleaners because they were in the wrong.

Too much of the story is missing for me to draw any conclusions. Obviously something led up to the assault, and you left out all of the details. Did you cut him off on the way to work? Beat him to a parking space? Sleep with his girlfriend? An employee doesn't usually just walk up to another employee without <b>provocation</b> and assault him.
NOT !!!!! Why would you even concider NOT makeing the firearm safe as soon as you are given possesion of it ??? If the LEO is handeling the firearm in an unsafe manner it is encumbent on you to bring this to the attention of his superiors. If it were me I would simply unload and clear the firearm at the point of return leaving the slide locked to the rear and ask the officer to have his shift Sgt.respond to the scene. All of it would be recorded on my DVR. as it happened.
FTR I would verbaly walk thru the whole unloading process so it is cought on the recording.
You missed the point. First I would not have taken the gun back from or handed it to the officer, they can take it off me and reholster it for me. Second I was speaking in terms of not touching my firearm near a cop. Trigger happy cops are all too uncommon.
