Security Takes Down Frantic Woman at Target

Occurred on July 31, 2017 / North Hollywood, California, USA

Info from Licensor: "A lady started screaming in line that seemed mentally unstable. When Target staff stepped in and tried to calm her, she got hostile. Security guard asked her nicely to leave several times, for several minutes. She was threatening, violent and spit on him. The guard didn't react. He and all the managers had called the police by this point. She screamed something about terrorists holding people in a Flesh Cave in the basement of the store. Then she started screaming racial slurs, and throwing stuff. The stuff she was throwing was getting heavier and heavier, so the guard tackles her, but he's super gentle. It took him forever to handcuff her, but he was being just forceful enough to keep her from getting away, but trying his best not to hurt her during all her thrashing. The whole time he and the managers were trying to get her to calm down. Finally, they got her cuffed, and pulled her to the back, assuring her no one's going to hurt her, and that she's not going to jail. She calmed down a little, but is was obviously beyond conversation."
