Last night, I went to Walmart to purchase soda and sparklers, After paying at the register, my friends were carrying the bags walking toward the door. I told them that we don’t have to stop for the receipt checker, but he stopped them. I kept walking, having the receipt in my pocket, but he would not let my friends go. I walked backed to the door and told my friends “He cant lawfully stop us, lets just go” and grabbed the bags from my friends and started to leave. The the receipt checker grabbed my arm and told me that there was no way in hell I was going to leave if I didn’t have a receipt. I told him that he can’t lawfully detain me without probable cause, but he insisted. He snatched for the bags, tearing open one of them and spilling my bottles of soda on the floor. I told him if he really wanted proof, he should go ask the cashier, so we walked back to the register, and as we were walking, I took my items and we bolted, the receipt checker yelling for someone to stop us. We are all pretty big, so thankfully no one did, otherwise it could’ve been messy
