A deputy police chief says a female officer has been stabbed inside a Walmart store in Columbia, South Carolina, while responding to a shoplifting call.

Deputy Chief Melron Kelly tells WACH-TV the incident took place just before 10 p.m. at the store on Bush River Road. Kelly says the officer pursued the male suspect, who fled.

The police department said in a tweet that the officer was taken to the hospital and was in stable condition.

Police posted a picture of a suspect on Twitter and urged residents to call 911 with information. They were reviewing surveillance footage and were using several helicopters to search for the man.

    When you catch him ….. waste a bullet… save cost of trial…..Killing or attacking with intent to kill an officer of the law should be an automatic death sentence.

      Death sentence for pre-planned killing of the Cops (Cop killers) should be the law of the land.
      “No respect for Cops” resulting “no mercy in punishment”.

    So many people going after the law enforcement community.
    Prayers of their protection and gratitude for their service requested.

    So the war on cops has escalated to a new level and of course the coward Obama hides and doesn’t say a thing. A message to the thugs, just wait till Trump gets in, then the police will be empowered and put you down for good.

    To those of you calling for violence to be met with violence, keep this in mind, what you sow is what you reap. Law enforcement are keeping calm, they are not going out and rounding up everyone and anyone and I thank God for them and I pray for those who have been killed and injured as well as their families. Rash minds result in rash actions, which is exactly what the liberal left want. Keep in mind that the liberal left will use any means at their disposal to keep Trump out of office.

    They have already painted his supporters in a negative light unjustly for the most part, how much more worse will it get if you respond with hatred and violence, be it in speech or actions? Your being baited into marshal law.

    You make some good points. Your last sentence should read “You’re being baited into martial law.”

    We the people can have a wonderful government if we not only elect it but we watch over it as as voluntary citizen overseers so that the only special intetests that are represented are those of the people – not big money interests and corporations manipulating our elected officials. Yes, corporations have intersts as entities that must be considered. Without healthy businesses, our economy will f

    Trump is not going to have a moment’s peace, between the left, and RINOS in our government. Give Trump a chance. Hrc lost the election because “the People” voted in Trump. God help Trump, and God help this country!!
