theft of wheelchair at Walmart caught on tape
New surveillance of wheelchair theft

-------------

This surveillance video shows what happened to Cuffee's wheelchair while she was using one of Walmart's motorized ones to get around the store.

You can see a man go to the corner where she left it with a greeter to look after.

The man takes the wheelchair and rolls it to his friend on crutches.

A Walmart greeter talks to them for a second then lets them go shopping in the store with the wheelchair.

Several minutes later, surveillance cameras catch the men leaving with Cuffee's wheelchair.

They stop right in front of the camera, talk to a woman with a baby for a while, then wheel the chair into the parking lot and leave with it.

4. That's so wonderful to hear! It restores ones faith there are good people in
the world. It seems each day we deal with so much negativity.
Thanks!

3. This was on my local news in VA Beach...
this happened a few miles from my house and its nice to know that there are some decent people that will help others when the chips are down.
