the Home Depot and business is booming mostly with paying customers except train your eye top and center of your screen on that heaping cart full of expensive merchandise pushed by the younger of the two women we met a few moments ago that's her mother trailing behind she turns her cart 90° and hightails it through the entry doors having paid for nothing bystanders look confused perhaps even amused but if we direct our attention again to the top of the screen we can see a Home Depot worker rush to investigate the walk out Dave the store's loss prevention manager will intercept the woman outside and collect the merchandise just as our officer arrives right so have we all had the chance to calm down good okay what do we got Dave um retail th she loaded a car all kinds of all kinds of Merc sir I was having problems with her and I needed to get away but she would not leave because I the we'll talk about it in a second stop she is we'll stop she part of it one second we'll stop okay

you being calmly without shouting do you got it that's fine thank you sorry I was robert3 earlier in the day so what happened um saw her a lot of selections and say she was grabbing up and she made all the selection grabbed Down Home Depot buckets is start loading then and there I know she's going to fre just do it and then she's just all right fight um she know what she was doing open stuff everything that came the buckets the back of the school just to load the buckets up okay and then she the stuff okay all right yeah give me what you got it's going to take a while I'll go and all right sweet all right what's your name Florence it's Barbara I'm sorry Barb what do you prefer Barb is fine hi Barb I'm Matt nice to meet you let's start this over again okay sure hi I'm Matt you speak English yes okay yes all right Mar can you tell me what happened what's that can you tell me what happened um I was trying to exit I was trying to look for something in the store door my mother is my ride except that she is constantly pestering me and so it escalated because I wanted to learn more about the tools and then she wouldn't leave me alone and I did not have the opportunity to use them what what stuff are you looking to buy today today specifically yeah I don't even know all right well why were you here to specific I go to Home Dep I go to Home Dep all the time and I always have a very specific reason to come here so you need electrical tape what else did what else was in your cart that you were planning on buying today I could have done with electrical tape oh um what else did what else did you walk without spackle no I I think that's almost irrelevant because she is the one it's it's relevant to me so oh that's fine what were you taking out of what were you bring with you out of the so I came in with uh speckle and pop tops um the hman like pop tops okay and that's what you came into the store with that's what I came into the store for what did you come all right so you came into the store for for spackle and pop tops and some electrical tape and what did you leave with um oh I was also looking for a toilet paper what did I leave with I left with the education that I could have received at Home Depot what product it was what was in the cart um a whole SLE of DeWalt tools hand tools all right what were you using those for what's that what were you going to use this is a project that she stole what's the project it's a bathroom renovation okay so you're doing a bathroom renovation no what what what the tools do you need for the bathroom renovation right now oh immediately a saw a Handa okay so you need a hand saww so that's not a DeWalt tool yes there are actually quite a number of them well I mean you you're you're leaving with hand tools though I'm assuming other power tools oh we don't need I mean the at present no just a crowbar but we already have one at home so you need a crowbar and a handsaw but you you walked out with other like theal tools yes because she came in and wouldn't leave me alone and I can't think and the thing is yes all right I would say this is a if I had a clearer mind and it has nothing to do with mental illness or anything but if I had a clearer mind and not a pestering woman going at me I could make educated decisions I could make clear decisions and now it's just a lot of things you inside or you uh in the parking lot I have two to in the parking lot we're on the north side of the lot uh I already talked to him he's just uh putting together some pictures and stuff um taking photos everything try to get me a receipt um I'm just getting her side of the story right now so all right that's where watch video I'm just going to 95 right here in a second just just finishing the story okay yes so you came out with some spackle some electrical tape um I what a Handa yes and what else possibly no I mean I would have stuck with um you asked different question I would have stuck with probably the pop tops okay but what else did you come out with um this it's I I can't even begin to tally that just having trouble remembering of course that's okay well I I was just trying to escape her but the thing is is that what was she doing that was so bad she was following me and she would not leave I asked for privacy I literally she can she should be I asked for privacy to be able to sort through everything but I needed her to leave okay and she did not she did not respect that so then I got upset and which one of these cars is yours I'm still bitter about it hey Barb which car is yours oh Barb um why don't you I actually don't even know where it is it's uh because our house who all things I appreciate the mediation yeah hey Barb do you have an idea on you no I'm sorry I don't
