A woman who was pregnant is in critical condition and required an emergency C-section after she was shot by a Walgreens employee who was maced Wednesday night during a confrontation over reportedly stolen items.
The preliminary investigation of the shooting shows that a 21-year-old Walgreens team leader at that store was informed by a coworker that two females were stealing items from the store. He told police he saw the women putting items into a shopping cart and personal bag before exiting the store without paying.
The employee says he pulled out a semi-automatic pistol as he was being maced and began firing shots, claiming he was in fear because he didn't know if they were armed.The women took off in the car, and the employee called 911 from inside the Walgreens store. The employee cooperated with detectives during the investigation. Investigators seized his gun used in the shooting and have taken possession of his cell phone.
