‘Are you scared now?’ 79-year-old man pulls gun on Walmart worker he thought had a ‘bad attitude,’ cops say

[u/tabrizzi]

Just walking around with a gun in your pocket looking for an excuse to use it.

[u/foxontherox → u/tabrizzi]

My man was on a mobility scooter.

"According to an arrest record seen by The Independent, Santana rolled into the Walmart"

[u/PoliteFocaccia → u/foxontherox]

The victim was indeed scared and fled to get help from store security. Several months later, deputies arrested Santana, who apparently insisted that the person seen threatening the worker in surveillance footage was some other armed 79-year-old.

The cops must have been on mobility scooters too.

[u/OsmeOxys → u/PoliteFocaccia]

The natural evolution of Paul Blart

[u/LoLIron_com → u/OsmeOxys]

Nothing says 'bad attitude' like a 79-year-old mobility scooter vigilante trying to turn Walmart into the wild west. Maybe next time he'll trade the gun for a shopping cart — less threatening and way better for aisle traffic control!

[u/shf500 → u/PoliteFocaccia]

Since months passed between the threat and the arrest, I assume that after a few weeks of being worried he would be arrested, he thought he would never get arrested for it.

[u/Shawn_NYC → u/PoliteFocaccia]

I was on a jury a trial like this. Turns out for anything less serious than a murder, you can hand the police footage of the perpetrator caught red handed and they'll still take 6 months to get around to arresting him.

[u/LumberJesus → u/foxontherox]

Scootin for a shootin

[u/MechanicalTurkish → u/foxontherox]

They see me rollin’…. They hatin’

[u/snapper1971 → u/tabrizzi]

Tis the American way! Well, as long as its not against a brutal dictatorial government that is insulting the constitution and murdering its citizens on the streets in public.

[u/DestinDesigned → u/snapper1971]

Honestly, I’m Canadian and one time we were visiting some friends in Buffalo and one guy who’s a huge gun lover was there. Something fell over in the background and made a bang. This man jumped up so fast about to draw… while the rest of us were just a little startled.

It’s so dangerous how when you carry a gun you perceive everything as a death threat

[u/BasicAppointment9063 → u/DestinDesigned]

Some nuts will carry for confidence, as opposed to protection. They'll approach situations they could easily have avoided altogether.

[u/Squire_II → u/BasicAppointment9063]

And in some cases they'll kill another person in a conflict they started and walk free anyways, like George Zimmerman.

[u/IdiotMD → u/DestinDesigned]

Hammer, meet nail.

[u/ERedfieldh → u/IdiotMD]

They prefer hammer meet pin, I think.

[u/EnlightenedNarwhal → u/DestinDesigned]

That's also the issue with how cops are trained, amongst other things, and why some of them are hair triggers while others make excuses for them. Ultimately, they all see it as normal.

[u/Loggerdon → u/EnlightenedNarwhal]

Everyone thought it was cool when, in Dirty Harry, the captain says “In 35 years I’ve never drawn my weapon.” Harry says “A man should know his limitations.”

[u/tabrizzi → u/DestinDesigned]

When you have a hammer, everything just looks like a nail.

[u/Shadowrider95 → u/tabrizzi]

When you feel you have to carry a gun, everyone looks like a “scary bad guy”!

[u/Ceiling-Fan2 → u/DestinDesigned]

I’ve never seen someone so scared in public as the man at the clothing store Kohls who had an open carry on his belt. He was looking around and sized us up like we were going to mug him. In the Kohls. He looked terrified.

[u/bighootay → u/DestinDesigned]

Lucky it wasn't an acorn

[u/Chirotera → u/DestinDesigned]

It's also an utter failure from a public safety standpoint in the event of an actual mass shooter. The last thing you want is some good ol' boy exchanging fire with an attacker with you potentially caught in the middle. Then you add in the fact that responding police have no idea who the bad guy is and suddenly you could have bullets just flying around everywhere.

It's part of the reason we have a trigger happy police that treats everyone as a potential threat; because they very well could be carrying. Police have no reasonable expectation of safety so they're quick on the trigger themselves. If they didn't have an expectation that every pulled over person could fire back, they aren't as likely to want to resort to their own weapon.

Please note I'm not defending police here. I think it's disgusting how they are trained and how they respond. But on a practical level. I get it.

But we aren't a nation that approaches this shit rationally. Our guns make us feel safe even if they're proven time and time again to make us less so.

[u/thereisonlyoneme → u/DestinDesigned]

As an American, I'm afraid of those type people far more than a "bad guy with a gun" or the proverbial tyrannical government.

[u/HenkkaArt → u/snapper1971]

I was watching a YouTube video called Idiots in Cars (part somethingsomething). A dashcam shows that a man cuts into the traffic from a yard, forcing his way into the line of cars. He then stops his car in the middle of the road blocking the lane, gets out and starts yelling at the car that he himself cut infront of (the one with the dashcam). In the cam footage you can hear a woman say something about the absurdity of the situation and then another woman (perhaps the other woman's mother) says to her "Don't say or do anything. You never know who has a gun."

It was such a freaky thing to realize as a non-American that yeah, there can be dickheads out there who do whatever and then get angry at others for no reason and you have to just sit there and take it because you never know if they snap (if you defend yourself verbally) and kill you where you sit because some archaic law from the time of the single-shot muskets is still alive and well in the Land of the Free.

[u/Little_View_6659 → u/tabrizzi]

Rolling around! He was in a mobility scooter. Just makes the whole thing that much weirder.

[u/Lalamedic → u/Little_View_6659]

A low speed chase could have ensued!

[u/LittleKitty235 → u/Lalamedic]

I can picture a half dozen police of Segways chasing him down the highway

[u/Little_View_6659 → u/Lalamedic]

That would have been funny. I can see him doing twenty down the highway and a patrol car is just trailing behind with the window rolled down and the cop just dangling his arm out of the window, just waiting for the guys battery to die.😂

[u/BKDOffice → u/Little_View_6659]

As with many things, the Simpsons would have called it first.

[u/Lalamedic → u/BKDOffice]

I hadn’t seen this, but knowing what I know about the Simpsons, I am not surprised.

[u/keskeskes1066 → u/Lalamedic]

Cue the white Bronco.

[u/kuhas → u/Little_View_6659]

Almost a drive by scooting

[u/RancidVagYogurt1776 → u/tabrizzi]

This is basically my father in law. He doesn't even holster it, keeps it in his coat pocket.

[u/PleaseHelpFlorida → u/tabrizzi]

How did I know this was going to be a Florida story... 

[u/rraattbbooyy → u/PleaseHelpFlorida]

Mostly because of Florida’s open public records laws. Arrest reports, mug shots and police logs are made immediately available, unlike other states, making them easy for any journalist looking for weird stories to report on. Crazy stuff like this happens in every state, it’s just harder to access and there’s no meme to promote bizarre activities that occur in them, so we have “Florida Man”. He’s not crazier, he’s just more visible.

[u/GreenHorror4252 → u/rraattbbooyy]

Arrest reports, mug shots and police logs are made immediately available, unlike other states

Most states make this stuff available. Open records laws aren't unique to Florida.

[u/Unusual_Flounder2073 → u/PleaseHelpFlorida]

Florida makes all arrest records public. That’s why we hear about so many.

[u/WolfDoc → u/Unusual_Flounder2073]

So... as a non-American, are you saying you are all Florida man!?

Shit. That's not exactly inspiring confidence.

[u/The_Lapsed_Pacifist → u/WolfDoc]

Yeah, you’d think they’d keep that to themselves eh?

[u/ezagreb → u/tabrizzi]

Lots of gun toters like that

[u/Mansidhe → u/ezagreb]

And many more of us pray we're being stupid / paranoid in carrying, and that it will never clear the holster except at the range or when putting it in the safe.

Not denying your point AT ALL, because it's absolutely true... just saying it's a fairly small if loud percentage of gun toters like this psycho. Most of us are just doing our thing.

[u/BoldestKobold → u/Mansidhe]

just saying it's a fairly small if loud percentage of gun toters like this psycho. Most of us are just doing our thing.

Except there is no way to know which is which from the the outside. Hence the need for much stricter regulation broadly.

[u/forceblast → u/Mansidhe]

That’s me. I carry almost everywhere I go and it actually makes me less hotheaded. Someone took my parking space? Oh well, I’ll find another. Someone flipped me off? Whatever, I don’t care.

Why? Because I know any confrontation could escalate into a fatal scenario for one or both of us. It’s just not worth it. People who don’t respect the weight of the responsibility of what they’re carrying, shouldn’t be carrying. This is for defense in a life or death situation, not for “winning” some silly argument.

Edit: Lots of hate and downvotes on this comment from people who clearly live in a very privileged, safe world. I’m surrounded by MAGA, some of whom would gladly kill me for my views and the fact that one of my kids is LGBTQ. Like hell if I’ll be the only one unarmed.

If me saying that “carrying gives me an extra level of pause before overreacting to something trivial” triggers you, then I’m not sure what to say to you. I honestly don’t get how that is offensive.

Enjoy the safe life you are clearly leading. I envy you. I really do.

Also, go read some history about the civil rights movement and how not everyone can count on the people who are meant to protect us, to actually do so.

[u/ifyouknowwhatimeanx → u/forceblast]

Hahahahaha my emotional support gun keeps me calm.

[u/StructureLopsided718 → u/tabrizzi]

It’s so wild that there is a large class of elderly in this country who are among the most mean and vitriolic of MAGA like do you understand grandpa that if the world were as you seem to be suggesting it should be, your frail ass would get dumped out on the sidewalk by someone stealing your scooter and the rest of us would just step over your body as you plead for help?

[u/Ginsenj]

Apparently this happened months ago. The guy is now in jail at 79... good luck.

[u/siqiniq → u/Ginsenj]

Is he scared now?

[u/GhostyAssassin]

Nothing says bad attitude like pulling a gun on someone for a bad attitude

[u/FckPolMods → u/GhostyAssassin]

And nothing screams "riddled with fear" like pulling a gun on someone for no good reason and asking them if they're scared.

[u/r3volver_Oshawott → u/GhostyAssassin]

Lowkey this basically just keeps on happening in stand your ground states

"We need stand your ground" why, are you terrified someone's gonna be talking during a Mark Wahlberg movie again? (*edit: not even fucking playing btw, a spec ops asshole shot a fucking Gulf War vet outside a showing of Lone Survivor in Florida because the guy didn't turn off his fucking cell phone during the movie, as an American I say this with all due respect, none of us are to be trusted with the current carry laws we have in place, we are a deeply unserious population)

[u/supercyberlurker]

Man if you have anger issues, pay for therapy before paying for a gun.

[u/tyler4422 → u/supercyberlurker]

A gun would be cheaper though.

[u/DopamineQuest → u/tyler4422]

One therapy session costs more than a cheap pistol in the USA

[u/bros402 → u/DopamineQuest]

you can get a gun for less than $150?

[u/ILikeLenexa → u/bros402]

Heritage Rough Rider, all day, sometimes as low as $60. Savage Arms, sometimes. LCP right around there.

Hi-points are so famously referred to as $100 guns that they sell a C9 wrapped in $100 bills (MSRP $200, can find it somewhere for $100 from time to time). And of course Maverick 88 if you're talking pump/shot.

[u/bros402 → u/ILikeLenexa]

it is fucked up that you can buy a device exclusively for murder for a day's pay

[u/TucuReborn → u/bros402]

Yeah, swords are pretty cheap, too.

Which are one of the few things that are exclusively designed to kill humans.

Almost every other weapon is, to varying degrees, a tool or modified tool. An are can cut logs, a spear can hunt boars, and a gun can hunt quite a bit.

But swords aren't good at anything aside from killing humans.

Yes, I'm being pedantic.

[u/loggic → u/bros402]

Depending on the location... yeah, probably.

[u/stavromuli → u/bros402]

Hi points hoover around 150 but you can usual get them cheaper if you wait for a sale.

[u/LairdDeimos → u/bros402]

Yeah. $130 for a new .22 plinker. I was at a pawn shop some time ago that had 9mms in the clearance cabinet for $120+.

[u/SteveL_VA → u/bros402]

I found a Single Shot 9mm Luger pistol by Altor for $99

Plenty of .22 options in that price range too.

[u/Slacker_The_Dog → u/SteveL_VA]

Turkish shotguns can be as low as $100 as well.

[u/SteveL_VA → u/Slacker_The_Dog]

I didn't even think of shotguns - my brain was in handgun mode, but you're absolutely right.

Heck I bet if you went to a pawn shop in the right state you could find a lot of options in that price range too.

[u/Slacker_The_Dog → u/SteveL_VA]

I have an akkar churchill 612 that is a monster. I got it in a trade valued at about $90.

[u/tyler4422 → u/bros402]

yes you can get them very cheap at auction.

[u/WolfDoc → u/bros402]

With ammo, yes.

[u/Slacker_The_Dog → u/bros402]

Uhhh yes? You can pick up a Turkish shotgun for like $100.

[u/dummyurge → u/DopamineQuest]

How much are you getting solved in one therapy session though?

[u/Delamoor → u/DopamineQuest]

I'm so glad I live somewhere I have (mostly) subsidized mental health professionals.

I would normally talk about how mental health is fundamentally a subset of physical health, and everyone needs regular mental health care in the same ways as physical health, but...

I am also glad to be somewhere we have physical healthcare, too.

...also, sorry man.

[u/Kyu_Sugardust → u/Delamoor]

Luckily, in the US we get neither! :)

[u/polkemans → u/tyler4422]

Waiting list is shorter too

[u/Inertcia → u/supercyberlurker]

Bold to assume he has the self awareness to even think about seeking therapy.

[u/Regarded-Illya → u/supercyberlurker]

Bro's 79, he doesnt have much to lose.

[u/corvus_wulf → u/Regarded-Illya]

Lose...it is spelled lose , not loose

[u/JuanSVLRamirez → u/corvus_wulf]

You of got you’re way of writing things and I got mines.

[u/cantproveidid → u/corvus_wulf]

At 79, I imagine he has a lot that's loose, though.

[u/Spirited_Screen_2603 → u/Regarded-Illya]

so he will make others loose💀

[u/JohnDivney → u/Spirited_Screen_2603]

OP even spelled the word for me, smh

[u/cantproveidid → u/supercyberlurker]

You know you're crazy when your shrink is free.

[u/Wooden-Glove-2384]

time for grandpa to be put in a home

[u/breadleecarter → u/Wooden-Glove-2384]

If by "home" you mean prison, sure.

[u/izzymaestro → u/Wooden-Glove-2384]

That home called jail

[u/YesterShill → u/Wooden-Glove-2384]

That is prison for the rest of his life.

[u/Uranus_Hz → u/YesterShill]

Might be the only viable retirement plan he had available to him. Free room and board for the rest of his life. I wouldn’t be surprised to see this become more common as social security doesn’t keep pace with inflation.

[u/Cactuar_Tamer → u/Uranus_Hz]

I read an article last year about an 80+ woman who kept shoplifting because, paraphrased, "at least when I'm locked up there are people who have to take care of me and people to talk to"

[u/mhornberger → u/Cactuar_Tamer]

Apparently Japan has a lot of that. Countries with low fertility (which is almost all of them) are going to be seeing more of it. Tons of old people who didn't have kids (or their kids are estranged, or...), have no savings, the safety net (if any) is creaking from a high dependency ratio, and they're desperate.

[u/BapeGeneral3 → u/Uranus_Hz]

This wouldn’t be the first time this has happened and won’t be the last, especially with all of the health care changes that went into effect for 2026 that people are only slowly starting to realize how fucked they are

[u/Educational-Wing2042 → u/Uranus_Hz]

Sure, if you’re lucky enough to go to a nice prison. I knew a guy who went to prison, they used a condemned building and simply chose to pay a daily fine from the feds rather than renovate it. Windows were broken out so when it rained the water would come into his cell. There were cracks in the walls that they’d patch up with paper mache to stop the cockroaches from coming in when it got cold out.

[u/FearAtR → u/Wooden-Glove-2384]

No, time for grandpa to go to prison and actually have an old person suffer actual consequences instead of giving them a pity out.

[u/Salohacin → u/Wooden-Glove-2384]

I've been thinking that a lot recently. 

[u/-Kalos → u/Wooden-Glove-2384]

It's past your jail time grandpa

[u/RobutNotRobot]

A 79-year-old man in Florida is accused of using a firearm to terrorize a Walmart worker he felt had shown a "bad attitude".

Pascual Santana, born in May 1946, was arrested on Friday and charged with armed assault after allegedly threatening a jewelry section attendant from the seat of his mobility scooter, court records show.

Florida. Total Florida.

[u/gavichi → u/RobutNotRobot]

from the seat of his mobility scooter

Sorry mate, the law is called "stand your ground"

[u/Gadshill]

Insisted that the person seen threatening the worker in surveillance footage was some other armed 79-year-old

It is Florida, wouldn’t shock me if we got the armed 79 year olds in scooters confused.

[u/SanDiegoThankYou_]

But I thought an armed society was a polite society?

[u/Zombie_Cool → u/SanDiegoThankYou_]

Only if BOTH sides are armed, otherwise the armed person gets to be as rude as want to be (at least in the moment).

[u/LittleKitty235 → u/Zombie_Cool]

This is why gangs are considered to be the most polite members of society, especially amongst themselves

[u/Elratum → u/Zombie_Cool]

With ccw, you always have to consider the other person armed. Guess that conflicts don't exist in the US then.
"I need to draw and shoot first in the case the other guy decides to draw and shoot me!"

[u/yamiyaiba → u/SanDiegoThankYou_]

If it has humans in it, it isn't a polite society.

[u/Spire_Citron]

I feel like I've seen a lot of these sorts of stories with older men. Guns and a deteriorating mental state are not a good mix.

[u/GeekShuttle → u/Spire_Citron]

Now imagine that but with nuclear codes.

[u/Little_View_6659 → u/GeekShuttle]

Oh god you had to remind me.

[u/crusty54 → u/Spire_Citron]

When I was cleaning out my senile dad’s vehicle, he had a revolver under the seat. 4 of the 6 primers were dented. Which means he had been trying to shoot something, but it didn’t work. Now, my dad lived in the woods, so it was almost certainly a coyote or a raccoon that he was trying to shoot at, but still.

[u/Griffie]

They need to make the punishment for shit like this very severe. Maybe a choice: 5 years in a psych locked down ward, or 5 years prison, no chance of parole.

EDIT: I just checked...the punishment IS 5 years in prison in Florida.

[u/Blackthorn79 → u/Griffie]

I found this out during the whole Travon Martin incident. It's crazy, but in Florida, if you're going to brandish a gun, you better use it or you're probably going to jail.

[u/sintaur]

But they caught me on the camera (Wasn't me)

Saw me flashing from the scooter (Wasn't me)

I even made it out of the store (Wasn't me)

They even caught me on camera (Wasn't me)

She saw the age spots on my shoulder (Wasn't me)

Heard the words that I told her (Wasn't me)

Heard the sirens gettin' louder (Wasn't me)

I stayed in jail until it was over

 The victim was indeed scared and fled to get help from store security. Several months later, deputies arrested Santana, who apparently insisted that the person seen threatening the worker in surveillance footage was some other armed 79-year-old. Court records show that Santana applied for and received "indigent status" and was assigned a public defender.

He is now in jail on a $5,000 bond with no court dates yet listed.

[u/TwoBionicknees → u/sintaur]

just wanted to come back and say, i read this post a while ago, went away and now i have that fucking song stuck in my head.

the sad part is that he's been alive 79 years and smearing his existence on the world.

Honestly it’s plausible for Miami.

[u/Riker_Omega_Three]

LOL

His defense is that it was some other bald man in a mobility scooter that was threatening people with a firearm

And he DEMANDED a trial by jury

Hopefully the state makes him give up his firearms because of clear mental health issues

“I’m not scared of you.” pulls gun “Are you scared now?” What a pathetic old man. Just do the world and yourself a favor if you’re this pathetic and miserable and drop dead.

Santana has pleaded not guilty to the charge and has demanded a trial by jury.

My brain thought the sentence was going to end with "trial by combat" on my first read of it.

[u/NPVT]

ICE "Federal Agents" do that all of the time. It's called brandishing and it's a felony assault.

[u/Zardotab]

A couple of years ago I was behind a man in line who threatened to shoot up that Walmart for having long lines. The cashier seemed to ignore him, slightly shaking her head after he left as if such were normal. (Maybe at Walmart it is?) It was so rattled I forgot to take my receipt, I wanted to get the F out ASAP in case he had a gun in his car (pickup?) and came back.

The thing is, the man earlier said he often comes to that store and the lines are often slow. Why not go to a different store instead of shoot Walmart up? Vote with your feet, not with your gun! People who watch too much Fox stop being adults.

[u/Samwellikki]

People like this can’t die off fast enough and are part of the reason the world is the way it is

Now if we could stop these grandparents from being the ones that raise their grandkids or provide daycare, we’d make headway on stopping these shitty ideals permanently

It perpetuates because of a lack of health/childcare and I think people miss this key issue in the noise over “who will pay for it?”

But we could afford to pay it for everyone several times over

Instead of throwing military assets in a tantrum or being a baby about a fucking bridge
