PD: Man arrested after discharging gun inside Walmart Reported by: Samantha Fitzgerald
EL MIRAGE, AZ -- A west Valley Wal-Mart customer was arrested Thursday after accidentally firing a round while playing with his pistol inside the store.
El Mirage Police Department spokesman Robert Peoples said officers were dispatched to the store near Thunderbird and Dysart roads after a call came in that shots had been fired.
While officers were en route, they discovered no one had been injured and that the store manager was standing with the suspect.
Peoples said the suspect was identified as 30-year-old David Walters, of Surprise.
During the officer's investigation, witnesses said Walters entered the store carrying a semi automatic pistol in a holster.
According to witnesses, Walters continually "messed" with the gun while it was in the holster. He would reportedly holster and un-holster the gun, which made the other customers and employees nervous.

Does this fellow have a “web presence”?
Would be curious to know if he is a D U or Daily Kos regular.

Walters reportedly approached the checkout lane and while standing at the end of the counter, he pulled the gun out of his holster again.Let me guess, a laid off rocket scientist?

Yep, looks like an idiot.
He should stick to a water pistol or stay in his room and play with that other toy, much safer.

So naturally, he assumed the pistol wouldn't either.
