CNN: Why Do You Think Walmart Attracts Such Criminal Elements?

August 19, 2015

CNN anchor Carol Costello asked Indiana mayor Dennis Buckley why his town’s Walmart attracts such criminal elements Wednesday.

Beech Grove Mayor Buckley said his town’s Walmart has as many as three police visits a day. The police are called for numerous reasons like shoplifting and to stop fights between customers.

Costello asked Buckley why his town’s Walmart is a high-crime spot.

"Why do you think Walmart attracts such criminal elements?" Costello asked.

"I’m not really sure," Buckley said. "I don't know if it's pricing. I don't know if it's the location off of the interstate. I’m not really sure."
