A group of Massachusetts shoppers tackled a man and pinned him to the ground until police arrived after catching him allegedly coughing and spitting on produce, fanning coronavirus fears.
Cell phone video shot from inside a Stop & Shop in Kingston on Saturday showed at least three men on top of the man as in the produce aisle. “Don’t try and get up,” one of the shoppers tells the man pinned to the floor.
Witnesses told police they spotted the 65-year-old man from Duxbury, whose name was not released by authorities, coughing and spitting on produce. Kyle Mann, an 18-year-old shopper from Pembroke who recorded the video and posted it on Facebook, said punches were also exchanged between the man and a store employee.
Kingston police may pursue charges against the unidentified man, including assault and battery, and destruction of property, The Patriot Ledger reported.

Good.
“Let’s Roll” 2020.
Guy had it coming.
In Massachusetts? No, thank you. I'll take COVID over firearms charges in that state.
I would have arm barred him until it fell off...
No question the country is changing.
Was that some kind of robot rolling around in the video?
Not changing, just that a crisis brings out what was already inside people, both good and bad.
I hadn’t looked at it like that. Maybe we can go back the “the way it was”. I sort of started from “you can’t swim in the same river twice.”
There are simply so many horrible people in this world. And that is pretty much why I have the tagline I do.

Yeah, that’s one of those creepy security robots I see more and more of in stores these days. They are roving cameras.
That’s an act of terrorism.

Maybe a leg sweep but I aint jumpin on that guy and wrestling him into submission.
I would just as rather shoot him from an appropriate social distance.
“The customer’s actions were not in accordance with CDC guidelines, which we have been consistently encouraging all shoppers and associates to follow to help prevent the spread of the coronavirus,” a Stop & Shop spokesperson said in a statement to WFXT.

Ya think.
Why was the terrorist still moving?
Those robots are supposed to cruise the aisles looking for spills or fallen items, and then alert store employees who are expected to solve the problem.
They are extremely annoying with the constant beeping, and they always seem to get in the way.
If it was a roving spy camera, it would have stayed right there with the altercation. Instead, it just beeped and rolled away.
