A physical altercation between two employees resulted in a stabbing at the Walmart Supercenter at the Outlet Collection Seattle in Auburn on Wednesday morning, police say.
New approaches are being tried to overcome the shortcomings in Seattle’s homeless response after the latest reports from the city’s HOPE team show half the people who are offered shelter never show up.
From Lake City—to Lynnwood—Bellevue—and Tacoma, marijuana shops and dispensaries have been terrorized by violent armed robbers. Washington State has had more than 70 pot shop robberies in so far this year.

How horrible
Sending prayers
Da fuk?
Eww
4-5 times!
Shop at Walmart, meet our friendly and sharp staff.
It won’t be long before these anti 2A people will be packing and protecting what’s theirs. Trial by fire.
Is there ever any good news on this channel ?
WalMarts converting into FEMA death camps , Wal mart founder was Eugenicist WW2 for Japanese internment camps, fact. Just NAZI nwo trash. Rescued by blackrock Feds, printing fake money
Well, more proof parents need to go to school, so they can learn to parent.
1:80 Just make camping on sidewalks and in parks illegal. Make it a crime. If shelter is offered and they don't show, arrest them. Shelter or prison. No more street camping. It should not be a choice. Enough is enough. These people need an intervention, not compassion without conditions.
Coping skills shouldn’t be only taught in wood shop
The pot shops being a cash only business definitely makes them a target! I don't know why they aren't allowed to accept credit cards, but they should be allowed to.
Walmart is always so innovative for the retail industry. Their approach to distinguishing management has gotten quite creative. They should've taken it a little slower though. Perhaps have workers compare prison tats to pick a leader before going this far.
It was either politics vaccination status something of that nature so that's what it is nowadays you got people with in business now harassing one another companies like Rudy's Barbershop won't even hire people if they don't have CDC vaccination guidelines so this is an issue
And all this woman is concerned about is the fact that she had to walk across the parking lot with our hands up and it was cold? This just completely describes what the heck is wrong with this city. Those people are crazy you couldn’t give me 20 acres anywhere in Washington anywhere
peaceful stabbing
I guess he wont make associate of the month.
Walmart employee new revised application question , Do you own a knife ?
Maybe they need to just start buzzing people in. If someone busts in the clerks should be immune from any penalties if they blast the criminals back out the door.
Edit: I went to the local shop by me yesterday and surprise,, the door was locked and they were buzzing people in..
This would never happen at a Target
With all the cruise ships heading to the scrappers, why not buy a couple to house the homeless?
Don’t let them in. Big hardened display windows with drive up bank air tube to collect funds. Use cryptocurrency only? Or spend taxpayer money on a big ole task force. Or get out of the drug distribution business.
Walmart has a hostile work environment.
A stabbing between two people means we should talk about robberies and homelessness as if they are linked. This is Sinclair in action. Trash.
Walmart is an alter to broke people stabbing each other. Just wish we'd start stabbing up, not down.
If it was management, I see no crime.
Are there regulations preventing the state to create a credit union type of financial institution for cash only businesses like pot shops? Even if it's only at the state level, operated by state. Could that be an option, because Congress isn't going to pass legislation at the federal level to allow pot shops to deal with banks because marijuana is still illegal at the federal level.?
You guys fired Jonathan Cho? Pathetic. You lost my viewership Komo. Way to cave to the terrorist scum Antifa.
Walmart is a cesspool of crime. Walmart just confirmed that my online order of $123. was re-directed to someone else's name/address/account in Sacramento, Cal. Great place to have your ID, money, & personal info stolen. Took Walmart 7 days& 6 phone calls, to confirm their employee is a THIEF & now says it'll be several days before my acc is restored but I'll believe it when I see it.
I can tell the lady is really concerned about the victim. NOT!
No wonder why these pot shops are getting hit sooo much. the pot shops are asking for it look at the inside of these pot shops all the products are on the walls in plain view. Here in AZ you don't see the products like these at the most a couple 8ths cased up and that's it. Most shops here you go in show ur Id then go to a kiosk/tablet and order your goods🥦🥦 everything is locked 🔒 up good behind secured doors and still have on duty armed security. You CAN'T advertise weed like that your asking to get robbed plain and simple. Did these pot shop not have security guards they didn't really make that clear????
Never been a Walmart and never will. Too many weird shit happens at Walmart!
Exactly why I quit going to Walmart years ago. bunch of trash there
Why no coverage of the Hunter Biden Laptop implicating President Biden, his brother, and Hunter in horrific crimes including funding biolabs in Ukraine and China used to develop the Cov— 19 virus? Also, the millions of dollars illegally generated by the Biden crime family from the wife of the Mayor of Moscow and Ukrainian an Chinese oligarchs. I guess your station is compromised.
I love how the shelter provided doesn’t interest most of the homeless that are camped illegally. Why do they cater to the percentage of homeless who have zero interest in changing their situation. If they are only interested in drugs, destroying the community they camp in, and committing crimes…then lock them up. The homeless who really want help get lost in the discussion, but the bad apples get all the press. Compassion for an addict never works bc it isn’t compassionate to enable someone to death. The law abiding citizens and the homeless who want help suffer bc of this. It’s insane how corrupt this is. The politicians and their interest groups steal tax payer money and allow criminals to run amuck. I hope people start taking their money elsewhere, but for those who can’t up and move….those are the real victims. Where is the compassion for them?
Oh since they’re not showing the perpetrator then I’m sure he’s black.
We MUST not allow high-capacity knives or fully automatic knives.
Our pot shops have guards. Pretty much all of them. I'm surprised Washington isn't following more Colorado shops. I live in Colorado but I'm actually a Washingtonian.
Get well.
ALL THESE WALMART STORES ARE GETTING TO BE DANGEROUS….THAT IS WHY I GOES EARLY IN THE A.M BECAUSE IF YOU GO AFTER 5 OR ON THE 1st. OF THE MONTH…YOU ARE GOING TO SEE SOME KINDA DRAMA…
THIS SHIT! DON’T!!! MAKE NO DAMMMNNN SENSE! AT ALL…
The store was not open, but employee stabbed em. Whatever. That was a test. Did they do they follow there training. Hmm. What were they doing in parking lot.
The potential employees need to be better vetted! Your always going to work around someone who says something that you might not like. Doesn't mean you go & fatally assault them!
What happened to the security
Hard time out side not in side
