Neither article, nor the video say.

Walgreens said she no longer works there though.

What is wrong with people? My kid is neurotypical and would have done that too. Kids do that kind of thing. Someone would have had to pull me off of that lady.

If this were true, then her license must be permanently revoked, so that she can not work ANYWHERE else, not just at Walgreens.
