A scary situation occurred Thanksgiving evening at Meijer on Plainfield.

WOOD-TV 8 reports a 52-year-old woman stopped to use the restroom around 7 p.m. when a man pointed a gun at the back of her head and demanded her wallet.

The suspect was spotted by several witnesses after the woman handed over her wallet and screamed. The Grand Rapids Police K-9 unit, along with Kent County deputies responded and eventually located the suspect at a nearby apartment. He was arrested, the stolen property was recovered and the gun ended up being a BB gun.

The man, who is in his early 20s, will be spending Thanksgiving weekend at the Kent County Jail.
