MOULTRIE —
Three civilians — one of them a Moultrie firefighter — detained a man running through the Walmart parking lot long enough for police to arrive and charge him with shoplifting.
Timothy Isiah Walker, 29, of Tifton was also charged with a probation violation warrant from Berrien County, Moultrie police said.
Police said a Walmart employee said she saw Walker leave the store Thursday evening with two televisions, a compter and a camera, but witnesses described him running through the parking lot carrying a TV. The three witnesses caught up to him at Zaxby’s and held him until police arrived.
