A man left customers in a store shocked after he barged in and stole some pack of knives before stabbing himself to death.
Police said that a man committed suicide in a California Target store this week by stabbing himself with a knife, Dailymail reports. It was gathered that the man's death left many shocked and baffled.
The death happened Wednesday at a Target located in Fontana.
The Fontana Police Department said in a news release: 'On Wednesday, March 30, 2016 at approximately, 11;07 a.m., officers responded to a call about a man down in an aisle inside the Target store located in the 15000 block of Summit Ave.
'Upon arrival officers located the individual in the housewares section of the store with an apparent stab wound to the torso.
'Surveillance video revealed the unidentified male walked into the store and headed to the kitchen section.
'The subject removed a knife out of a package before using it to stab himself.'
Target said in a statement to KABC: 'At Target, the safety and security of our guests and team members is a top priority.'
The company said: 'Once it was determined there was no danger to guests or team members, we sectioned off the entire area to allow the police to investigate.
'Following that investigation, we did close the store, and the store remains closed.
'We anticipate reopening soon.
'We appreciate the support of local law enforcement, and our thoughts are with anyone who may have been impacted.'
Customer Marlene Rodriguez told The Sun: 'It's disgusting that they would let people continue to shop when there’s a dead body inside.
'My stomach is churning.
'Why wouldn't they clear the store out as soon as they knew what had happened?'
