Assault with a Deadly Stileto
So the company I worked for sold used shoes. Due to the fact that there was no way for us to mark shoes in a way that would prove that the shoes were from our store, all sales were final. One day I was coming back from break and I noticed that there was a commotion at the register. Turns out a women was trying to return a pair of shoes and was upset over the fact that we didn’t do return on them. She was overly irate, and the situation escalated as the line grew. Finally realizing that the manager would not be budging on the return, she lost it. Tearing her hand back, she swings the bag holding the shoes horizontally, trying to knock over the register. She totally misses, and the swing has enough force to wrap behind her and hit the customer behind her directly in the wind pipe. Realizing she just committed an assault crime, she quickly left the store with her single shoe as everyone in the front of the store stood in a mixture or confusion and shock. After talking to the man who was asulted, we found out he was ok, so I went back to the break room, dropped my stuff off and went back to work. The next day on my way to Starbucks, I found a discarded shoe, and sure enough it was the assault weapon.
