Papers Please: Arrested at Circuit City for refusing to show ID, receipt

September 2, 2007 12:36am

Circuit City and the cop are both going to lose on this one, bigtime.

First, he was illegally detained by the CC manager, and then "not showing ID" is *not* a valid reason to get arrested in Ohio.

Watching how this plays out should be very interesting. The Austin, TX CompUSA stores stopped checking receipts at the door in '99 or early 2000 after a large outcry and many complaints from the "nerd community" resulting from some overzealous rent-a-cops chasing people out into the parking lot or preventing them from driving away with their purchases.
