The Monroe County Sheriff's Office said that there was an armed robbery at Walmart in Brockport and a knife was used.

"Monroe County sheriff’s deputies say it all started when a man stole a bunch of meat. That’s when a person who saw the theft approached the suspect. Deputies say the suspect had a sharp object, possibly a knife, and that’s when the person pulled out his legally registered handgun."

They don't say who the person is who "saw the theft and approached the suspect". Walmart has standing orders for employees NOT to follow shoplifters out to the parking lot, and NOT carry personal handguns while on duty.

If someone sees a theft and confronts the suspect is it considered self defense? I'm actually surprised that the random "do-gooder" hasn't been arrested for menacing. This IS the People's Republik of New Yorkistan after all.

This is not self-defense. The animal is already dead.

Yet, they try to see your receipt to see if you are stealing before you leave the building.
I tell them to go stand by the register. Than ask what will you do if I am stealing? Tell me to have A nice day?

Sorry, but don't be a dumbass confronting thieves from Walmart with your CCW. There is NOTHING good to come of it. That gun is for your protection, and the innocents around you. A dude stealing from Walmart is Walmart problem. They sure as hell won't be footing the bill for legal defense in the event you're charged in New Yorkistan. They don't even let THEIR OWN people confront shoplifters. That should tell you everything you need to know.
