PALM BAY, Fla. — A Palm Bay man has been charged with punching an elderly Walmart greeter who asked to see the man’s receipt as he was leaving the store.

Police say 23-year-old Skyler Lowery was walking through the exit at the Palm Bay store Saturday morning when the alarm went off. The 69-year-old employee asked to see Lowery’s receipt. Lowery showed the receipt quickly and kept walking, and the greeter followed Lowery outside.

Police say Lowery grabbed the greeter’s clipboard and tore up a paper, then punched the employee in the head before a second worker intervened.

Lowery was arrested and charged with battery. He was being held on $5,000 bail.
