June 8: Simple battery — An officer was dispatched to Walmart for a reported fight between employees. The manager said two employees were fighting outside of the store during their break, but she separated them upon the officer’s arrival.
The officer spoke to one of the employees, who said the fight started due to a conversation the two men had two days ago. He said the other employee threw the first punch, which caused him to punch him back.
The officer then spoke with the other employee, who said the fight started due to the other man making fun of his sexual orientation.
Another employee witnessed the fight, and he said the first employee started using racial slurs and kept approaching the second employee, who was trying to walk away from him. Then the second employee turned around and hit him, and they began to fight until they were separated.
