The alleged shoplifter and the responding police officer engaged in a dramatic tussle in the store as well as in the parking lot.<\/p>\n<p>The Atlanta Police Department said in a social media post that law enforcement was called in the evening to a local Target store on Monday, August 7 after the store called law enforcement after a man was stealing an expensive television.<\/p>\n<p>When they arrived, officers followed the unnamed suspect from the store. When the suspect spotted the responding officer, officials say he ran.<\/p>\n<p>Body camera footage released by police shows the officer catching up to the suspect just outside the store and the pair begin to fight.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t want to go to jail,&#8221; the suspect is heard wailing in the body camera footage. &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to go to f&#8212;&#8212; jail.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/georgia-target-shoplifter-caught-red-handed-arrested-after-dramatic-fight-police\">Fox News<\/a><\/p>\n<p>OK, Atlanta isn&#8217;t a small town and certainly has its own share of issues- call it artistic license. It&#8217;s not Portland, San Franscisco or Chicago, either. Those who can have or are fleeing the places where the local government has abdicated the streets to thugs and prosecutes those who fight back. Downtown Portland has been described as a hollowed-out shell, major retailers are moving their flagship stores out of San Franscisco and Mayor Johnson objects to the term &#8220;mobs&#8221; a reporter used to describe Chicago&#8217;s summer teen riots.<\/p>\n<p>A Navy Chief once gave me some needed stick and rudder- &#8220;AWANEd, the best way to avoid all that shit is to avoid all that shit.&#8221; Rudy Giuliani would agree, and it worked well in NYC back in his day.<\/p>\n<p>This would also apply to our suspect&#8217;s desire not to become incarcerated, but I doubt he&#8217;d see the wisdom.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"510\" height=\"410\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/R1KNrQv2b5M\" title=\"Shoplifter suspect gets busted after returning to same Target to steal another TV\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Enforcing existing laws doesn&#8217;t hurt either.
