It’s not unusual for the department to send a van to transport all the criminals Ross arrests at this Walmart. The call log on the store stretches 126 pages, documenting more than 5000 trips over the past 5 years. Last year police were called to the store and 3 other Tulsa Walmarts just under 2000 times. By comparison, they were called to the city’s 4 Target stores ~300 times. Most of the calls to the northeast Supercenter were for shoplifting, but there’s no shortage of more serious crimes, including 5 armed robberies so far this year, a murder suspect who killed himself with a gunshot to the head in the parking lot last year, and, in 2014, a group of men who got into a parking lot shootout that killed 1 and seriously injured 2 others.
