QuoteThree employees at a Florida Walmart have been arrested in connection with the death of a shoplifter.
Nathan Higgins, 35, Crucelis Nunez, 23, and Randall Tomko, 58, were each arrested & charged on Thursday with manslaughter in the death of Kenneth Wisham, 64, after he tried to leave the store with a shopping cart filled with nearly $400 worth of DVDs, police said.
"If you are shoplifting there is a result that you have to pay, it should not result in losing your life," police spokesman Sgt. Gary Gross told ABC station WFTS-TV.
On Feb. 7, employees attempted to stop Wisham from exiting the Lakeland store after he tripped the security alarm, according to the police report.
When employees asked to see his receipt, Wisham patted his pants pretending to look for one. After Wisham could not produce a receipt, he left the shopping cart and fled outside.
Tomko and Nunez chased Wisham until he fell to the ground, the report said. Tomko told police he never touched Wisham and that after he fell, he noticed he'd stopped breathing and had another employee call 911.
But Nunez said Tomko and Higgins jumped on top of Wisham after she "slightly pushed" him, the report said. Tomko lunged on top of his upper body while Higgins restrained his legs.
Wisham struggled underneath the two employees and yelled, "Get off of me. I didn't do anything."
When police arrived, the employee who called 911 was performing chest compressions on Wisham.
Wisham died from suffocation after he was forced into a position where he could not breathe, Bay News 9 reported.
An autopsy revealed he had 15 broken ribs.

Am sorry, but he would have just gotten away.
I doubt Walmart of all places is paying them enough to be chasing down folks possibly putting themselves at risk.
No ma'am.
You're not even supposed to chase a shoplifter unless you're LP and that's with any job.
