A security guard at the Walmart in Thompson says she is lucky to be alive after being attacked with a shopping cart by an alleged shoplifter.
Manju Chopra, 63, was at work on Wednesday evening when a man tried to steal meat from the store in the northern Manitoba city, she said.
As the alleged shoplifter tried to leave the store, another security guard asked the man to return the items or pay for them, but he refused, said Chopra.
