O.K, I must give credit where credit is due here. Wil Greenlee from my local news rag, TCPalm.com began this article with “A purported prophylactic pilferer lead police on a roughly 60 yard foot pursuit during a Wednesday morning condom caper at a Wal-Mart Supercenter in St. Lucie West, according to a recently released report”. I wish I could come up with cool sentences like “purported prophylactic pilferer”, but I digress. The story gets better with a security officer having trouble chasing down a 300 pound woman after 60 yards and of course some taser action. Personally, I think they should give her the condoms, it can only save Wal-Mart and taxpayers money down the road.


Quote from the article:

But Krystal Bernette Deveaux, 22, ultimately was collared by Officer Lee Rehm during the 12:20 a.m. Wednesday incident, the report states. "Due to the female's large stature, fast speed, and active resistance to my numerous attempts to stop her, along with the fact that I did not have back-up for the theft arrest, I determined that I would utilize my Taser to stop the actively resistant suspect," Rehm wrote of efforts to apprehend the 300-pound woman. Rehm warned he would "Taze," or shock, the woman, later identified as Deveaux, but still got no compliance. "Considering the safety of the suspect, the vehicles and patrons traveling in the parking lot, as well as my own safety in the event the large suspect would escalate to fighting, I determined that Taser utilization would be the safest and most effective manner to stop the suspect safely," the report states.
