Target could have had the homicide of a young girl, in one of their stores to deal with, had Michael Turner had not come to her rescue. In 2013, Allison Meadows, then 16, was shopping at the East Liberty, Pennsylvania, Target, when she was stabbed by Leon Walls. Walls rushed into the store after her and attacked Meadows with a knife.
Allison Meadows is quite grateful to the stranger who came to her rescue on that day. Without Turner’s help, her injuries would have been much worse, if not fatal. Turner, along with many other men, jumped to her rescue, confronting her attacker and chasing him out the front of the store with a baseball bat.
Walls was convicted of attempted homicide, with the assistance of the store surveillance video, and certainly with the testimony of Meadow’s rescuers.
Target once again has made an ill-considered move and has sued Michael Turner for “endangering store customers”.
Target would have rather dealt with a great deal of blow back had a customer been stabbed to death in their establishment; instead they had a hero chase a knife-wielding man outside so he could be arrested. Read more Target idiocy on the next page.
Classy company, boycott Target
This is getting sssssoooooooo out of hand!!!
I hope to do something about it and encourages others to do the same. I believe that we are in and have been involved in WWIII for about 30 years or so and it is progressing right under our noses, entrenched within our borders
This can’t be true…is it?
Boycott drive them out of business
That’s why you don’t shop at target, Because they will target you.
I’ll never go in a target. I’ll pee on the wall.
What a shame.
So this is how Target is planning to get their money back God help them…the young lady needs to sue Target … Target be responsible for what happens to your customers.. While in your store..
no more Target for me and mine…..
