HOLLAND TOWNSHIP, Mich. — A Grand Haven man went into the Walmart on North Park Dr Friday night, and did thousands of dollars in damage, say deputies.

The 25-year-old is accused of pulling six flat-screen TVs from the shelves, destroying them before grabbing a metal pole and smashing display cases and coolers, knocking products off the shelves, and breaking at least 17 glass doors.

No one was hurt, but the store was full of shoppers, including children.
