Baby stolen from WalMart

I was just watching the news report of a baby stolen from WalMart, either yesterday or today. It was in Texas, Abilene I think. I thought I'd heard it all till now. If you havent seen the report on tv its pretty incredible. The lady put her baby in her van, left the sliding door open and returned the shopping cart to the cart corral not 15' away. The baby thief took her baby from her van in the time it took her (20 seconds) maybe? Its all on video but not too good a picture. I really feel for this woman, she did everything right, and some ba*tard bit*h stole her baby. I'd have to kill her if happen to me and I found her first. Too bad she didnt have her CCW permit and a handgun on her. Great attempt by a 13 year old boy who tried to help this woman save her baby too.

The baby was only a month old by the way, and about 8 lbs. The woman was white, heavy, about 5'8", dont quote me on the weight, with a clear complexion, driving a late 90s vehicle, turquoise like in color, like either a skylark or a contour, dont know how many doors. The passenger side front window may have been broken by the 13 year old, who struck it with his fist.

    rugster,
    Yeah I heard that too. I guess the mom is upset that the girls hair has been cut. Yeah I guess I'd be upset too, but, uh, I dont think I'd be worried enough about the hair to say anything about it.

    It looks like they may have caught the B*****d B***** already. All this publicity may actually be helping. I hear the rate of abductions is not actually up, but the level of media publicity is. Even so, if they're going to headline something, this is the sort of thing worth doing if it gets kids back before they are harmed.

    Didn't know WalMart had a stock of babies.

    It's not what you know that gets you in trouble, it's what you know that just ain't so!

    Baby has been found in good condition 120 miles away, by a routine stop.

    As she drove off with the baby the 13 year old kid punched out her window for her.

    I like him already.
