SIAP- Target suing guy who helped stop a stabbing in their store

Documents obtained by Channel 11 News confirmed that the store is suing him and others for their response during the situation.

Target claimed that Turner pursued the attacker, Leon Walls, onto the premises and through the store, causing unreasonable risk of harm to others.

"I figure if I come out here and let the public see what's going on, I think I'll get some help from the public,” Turner said Thursday.

Walls was ultimately found guilty but mentally ill.

The lawyer for Allison Meadows, the teen who was stabbed, described the suit as Target’s attempt to blame someone else for the incident.

“We have sued Target, because they failed to keep Allison safe. Suing Michael Turner is just Target's way of trying to blame someone else for what happened under their own roof. The family certainly doesn't blame Mr. Turner, and they are thankful he was there that day,” Lisa Circeo, Meadows’ lawyer, wrote in a statement to Channel 11 News
