Arrest made after man, woman fight over Walmart parking space

Jan. 11, 2012 | 9 comments

A Greenfield man was arrested and cited for disorderly conduct after he pulled a woman’s hair during a fight over a parking space at Walmart, 6701 S. 27th St., at 10:45 a.m. Sunday.

According to the Franklin police report:

A 51-year-old Franklin man stated he was waiting for a parking spot at Walmart when a different vehicle snuck in front of him and took the space.

After a few words were exchanged, the driver of the vehicle that took the spot approached the caller’s vehicle, stuck his hand through the open window and pulled the hair of the passenger, a 57-year-old Franklin woman.

He then left the parking lot and entered the store.

The suspect, a 55-year-old Greenfield man who was described by the caller as a balding white male wearing wire-rimmed glasses and Packer clothing, was located by store security and police.

He was cited for disorderly conduct.

    And I'll bet both are as wide as they are tall and could have used the exercise. Park in the far corner and WALK!.

    Good call, Lulu! Make comments about people you do not even know! I bet your glass house has all sorts of cracks in it. So, hey everyone, if you park anywhere in a parking lot except the far corner Lulu thinks you're fat. I bet Lulu is a real looker, casting judgment from her computer.

    Enjoy your online dating, gorgeous.

    When Kardashians and stupidity and needless consumption are held on high, this behavior becomes the norm. Wouldn't you know, our system of currency breeds distrust, for we cannot afford to be moral or truthfull.

    . . . and this is why I avoid WalMart. Although I have noticed that parking lots seem to be a little testy these days. . .

    There is no way a Packer fan, wearing his jersey too, would ever do such a thing.
    Must be mistaken identity.
