Next time you read an WM employee's complaints about WM customers, remember this:
GARDEN CITY, Kan. - A trip to the local Wal-Mart turned out to be a life-changing event for a Garden City man whose quick reflexes saved an 18-year-old woman from possible death.Robert DeLeon, 40, his wife, Delma, and their young daughter had just finished shopping around 7:30 p.m. Thursday and were driving home when Delma noticed a woman sitting on the U.S. 156/83 overpass, her feet dangling over the side....
He said he thought he had convinced the woman to come back to his van, but then a police car pulled up and she panicked and jumped.
"I reached out and had an arm around her waist, then I reached with the other hand and grabbed her belt," he said....
Garden City police Capt. Mike Utz praised DeLeon for saving the woman's life and preventing injury to anyone driving under the overpass.
