OMG!!! Police Breaks Man's Legs For Allegedly Stealing A Tomato

Police are meant to enforce law and order in the society they live in, how do you accost someone who you assume to have stolen from a place like Walmart. A local man said an off-duty Atlanta police officer working security for Walmart severely beat him after he was falsely accused of stealing a tomato. 

After he was handcuffed to his hospital bed with a broken leg and severed artery, Tyrone Carnegay told Channel 2’s Craig Lucie he spent three days in jail and the charges were dropped.In security video the officer is seen confronting Carnegay as he is walking out of the store. The officer is then seen suddenly pulling out his baton and then beating Carnegay for stealing a tomato, which he said he paid for..

Carnegay said after he was on the ground in handcuffs, the officer reached into his pocket found his receipt, which he said showed he paid for the tomato.

His attorney said this could have been avoided with one question.

“Somebody could have come up to him and said, ‘Excuse me sir, do you have (a) receipt for that tomato?’ and he would’ve shown him the receipt,” said attorney Craig Jones. “The officer went into Robocop mode and beat the crap out of him.”

Lucie contacted Walmart about the video and lawsuit, as well APD, for comments on the incident.

A representative from Walmart said they had not been served the lawsuit but said, “We take the matter seriously. We will review the allegations and respond appropriately with the court.”
