DISPUTE OVER CHECKOUT LINE AT MARSHALLS LED TO STABBING OF WOMAN IN NJ PARKING LOT
KEARNEY, New Jersey (WABC) -- No one likes to stand in a long line, but a dispute at a Marshalls in Kearney ended with bloodshed.
A woman in New Jersey is accused of stabbing another woman in the parking lot of a Marshall's on Saturday after a dispute over the movement of speed at the checkout line, police said.
Police said 25-year-old Amber Thompson allegedly threatened to harm the woman in the checkout line.
The victim and her family decided to leave the store on Passaic Avenue and go to their vehicle.
Police said Thompson bought a set of knives, took one out of the packaging and chased the victim down in the parking lot, stabbing her several times.
Police said the victim was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Thompson was found hiding in the bathroom of the Marshalls' with a bloody knife on top of the baby changing station, police said.
Thompson is charged with aggravated assault, unlawful possession of weapons, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, and endangering another person.
Shoppers questioned whether or not there should be more security at the store, which has left many people on edge.
"I think that's pretty crazy that happened here. It's just crazy because it never happens here," a shopper said.
A Marshalls spokesperson released a statement saying, "We are aware of the incident that occurred in the parking lot outside of our store last week. At Marshalls, the safety and security of our Associates and customers is important to us, and we're grateful for the swift response of the Kearney Police Department. As this is a police matter, we'd respectfully defer any further comment to the Kearney Police Department.
