PLEASANTON, Calif. — A Home Depot employee has been shot killed after confronting a female shoplifter who was making her way to a getaway vehicle with her child inside.
The incident occurred at approximately 2:15 p.m. Tuesday inside the Home Depot located on 6000 Johnson Drive in Pleasanton, California -- approximately 40 miles north of San Jose -- when 26-year-old Blake Mohs confronted a female shopper who tried to resist him, according to the Pleasanton Police Department.
Following the shooting, the Pleasanton Police Department confirmed Mohs, a Tri-Valley resident, died from his injuries. Just 15 minutes later at approximately 2:30 p.m., deputies with the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office were able to locate the vehicle and successfully detain the suspects near the 7000 block of Ney Avenue in Oakland, California, and a handgun was recovered in a nearby intersection.
“Blake was a well-known member of the community who helped keep customers and staff safe,” said the Pleasanton Police Department. “He was involved in community youth programs and planned to be married in the summer. He is survived by his parents, brother, and fiancée.”
