China Wal-Mart employees detained in shopper's death

BEIJING (Reuters) - Two Wal-Mart China employees were detained in southern China following the death of a customer, whom employees followed and pushed to the ground after suspecting her of shoplifting, according to a police website.

Yu Xiaochun died last Wednesday, three days after she was injured in a dispute with five Wal-Mart workers after shopping in a Wal-Mart store, the official website for the Jingdezhen city police from southern Jiangxi province said. (www.jdz110.com)

Wal-Mart confirmed that an "incident" occurred near their Jingdezhen store between two security employees and a 37-year old female "visitor," who later died.

"The incident and cause of death is the subject of an investigation," said Wal-Mart in a statement.

"The company is fully cooperating with the relevant authorities and will release further details as it is appropriate," said the retailing giant.

Five store employees followed Yu and stopped her in the street on suspicion that she had stolen goods while shopping at the Wal-Mart store, the police said in the statement.

Police had formally arrested two of the five, but later released the three others for unknown reasons, the official China Daily reported on Tuesday.

Yu refused to show a receipt to prove she had made the purchases because the Wal-Mart employees were not wearing store uniforms when they confronted her, according to the newspaper.

In the ensuing scuffle, Yu was pushed to the ground and injured, it said.

Yu's husband complained that Wal-Mart did not apologize or offer any compensation for his wife's death, the newspaper said.

LOL. He's actually not fat at all.



but on a side note, ya in china if u steal, be ready to get ur ass beat or hands cut off, pushed to the ground is minor, too bad she died though. I think there is more to this story than just her being pushed to the ground.

You're jumping to a stupid conclusion as well.

Anyway, it's common for companies to not apologize or whatever in China. :/

there's obviously a lot of missing information here.

i can understand both parties if certain facts are true.

IF the 5 guys indeed had no uniforms to speak of, then i wouldn't show them a fucking receipt either.

BUT how would walmart be implicated IF between the 5 of them, none of them had anything close to a uniform on?

there has to be more details. you don't die from being pushed over. but, being china, details are always sketchy.

Arrests over China Wal-Mart death
map

Two Wal-Mart employees have been arrested in the Chinese city of Jingdezhen, in connection with the death of a customer, local police say.

Reports say Yu Xiaochun was intercepted and badly beaten by five Wal-Mart security guards who suspected her of shoplifting.

She died in hospital three days after the 30 August beating.

Wal-Mart has confirmed the incident and said it was fully co-operating with the relevant authorities.

Horrific scene

An eyewitness said she saw four or five young men beating the woman a few hundred yards away from the Wal-Mart store, and she had even gone over to tell them off. She said the scene was horrific.

The dead woman's husband told the media that he had found a shopping receipt in his wife's pocket after he got to the scene.

The victim was 37 years old and had a young son.

The police say they are doing all they can to prevent any public anger from fomenting into a so-called 'mass incident'.

It was not the quantity of posts it was based on quality.

Only a few ROOGP are left on RS as most of the ROOGP got fed up of the BS that the new breed of Post Whores are putting up in here.

Well, his wife was probably poorly made chinese crap, considering that she died from falling onto the ground...

So you agree with the victim's husband that the first thing you should do when someone killed your loved ones was to complain about the lack of an apology and to demand a compensation? Or do you just lack the capacity to think about what a reasonable person, without an ulterior motive, would do if his/her loved ones were killed?

tell ya what. since you are still jumping to conclusions without proof. i'll accept your theory.

the husband IS all about the money. he DOES have a smirk on his face while demanding compensation. he IS everything you hate.

i guess that's all the proof i need that you are a fat loser cop wannabe.
