A 36-year-old man accused of assaulting a 66-year-old woman inside a Walmart remains in the Sarasota County jail today in lieu of $10,000 bail.
Venice Police arrested Steven Renard Grant on a charge of battery on a person 65 or older late Tuesday night.
Officers say that Grant approached the woman inside Walmart, 17000 Tamiami Trail, and claimed to work for God. When the woman told him she did not think so, Grant reportedly told her she was going to Hell, screamed profanities at her, pushed her shopping cart and started throwing potatoes from the produce section at her.
Other customers reportedly came to the woman's aid until police arrived.
FR needs a ‘like’ button.
When potatoes are outlawed, only outlaws will...uh...ap-peel.
Lots of laughs on this thread!
Sure, it’s all fun until someone puts an eye out.
Steven Renard Grant—the Potato Prophet.
And then lettuce, bacon and bread so that when you sober up the two of you can have a nice sandwich together and be friends again.
Throwing potatoes crosses the line. Potatoes are for shooting, not for throwing.
Would you like that potato with the works?
Where are the men?That cat would have experienced a serious beat down crazy or not.Our society is not protected and it is up to us.
1. AND IN THE LAST DAYS all shall come from the East, and from the West, and all shall gather at the Super Walmart, where the prices abate not, neither do the laborers wages rise,
2. BUT BEWARE those that come amongst you in the land of the Super Walmart, who claim to labor in the field for THE LORD. The Spirit of God resteth not on them, behold, they are the prophets of Wack, they dwell in the land of Nutjob; they scream at the altar of produce, and cast tubers at the people, verily, the root of all french fries they cast at the shopper and the widow and the wayfarer in the aisles.
3. LET NOT your heart be troubled, and let not thy head be beaned by the slings and arrows and OreIdas of the false prophets, but let thy trust be in THE LORD, and let thy cellphone hearken to the speeddial of 911, for verily the PoPos will arrive in the swiftness of chariots, and shall protect and serve thee by binding the false prophets of produce, and taking them away from that place, to the hoosegow of the penitent, where the bars faileth not, and the guard heedeth not those false prophets, nor do they hear their cries.
Indeed
LOL! You’re killing me over here! You always seem to find the funniest pics....
I prefer throwing angel food cake.
Don’t bend over in the garden Grannie cause them taters got eyes...
I know what you mean. Every time I go to Walmart I feel this indescribable urge to throw potatoes at everyone I see. Sometimes I bring my sling shot for extra fun. And sometimes, when I really want to have fun, I bring my potato canon.
Btw, what is also really fun is blowing up potatoes in walmart and watching everybody get splattered with mashed potato bits.
I was in Phuket last week and the best thing was very few WalMart bodies on the beach!! A couple of Germans plus sizes but most were very nice looking. ;-)
