Léelo en español aquí Armani Tyrell Waite is accused of shooting an employee in the store located at 50 North MacDade Boulevard in Glenolden, Pennsylvania, at around 7:30 p.m. on Friday, July 31, police said. Police told NBC10 that Waite was arguing with another customer inside the store when he pulled out a gun and fired five to 10 shots. A Walmart employee was shot once in the calf, according to police. “I could see something ricochet to the floor and then it like flashed. So, I’m assuming that was the bullet,” a woman, who did not reveal her full name, told NBC10. “Then they rushed everybody to the back of the store.” The woman told NBC10 children were inside the Walmart at the time of the shooting. Another woman – who also did not reveal her full name – told NBC10 she was with her 3-year-old son inside the store when the shots were fired. “I was waiting to pay. And the crazy part about it is, my friend was like, ‘Oh let’s go to that aisle.’ I was like, ‘No, I don’t want to go.’ I was just like, ‘I don’t know why they want to go to that aisle,'” she said. “And that’s where it happened. So I don’t know, the prayer I prayed before I went outside today was a good one.” The employee was taken to the hospital. Police said her injury is not life-threatening and she’s expected to recover. Witnesses said other employees rushed customers to safety and that they sheltered-in-place inside the store for about an hour. Over the weekend, Darby Township Police identified Waite as the suspect in the shooting. He was charged with attempted murder, aggravated assault, recklessly endangering another person, firearms not to be carried without a license and possession of an instrument of crime with intent. On Monday, Aug. 3, law enforcement sources announced that Waite was in custody. Officials plan to reveal more details on the incident and arrest during a press conference at 3 p.m. You can watch it LIVE in the video embedded on top of this article.
