A 31-year-old shoplifter was chased down, shot and killed in Dallas, TX., by CVS employee, Julio Ruvalcaba, who is now facing a murder charge. Ruvalcaba is said to be in charge of “loss prevention” at the store.
Dallas Police say, Christopher Geddes was caught on camera last week, stealing “an item” and running out of the store. Ruvalcaba, 36, chased Geddes in his vehicle. The pursuit resulted in a fatal shooting.

A police report states witnesses called 911 to report seeing a Camry and a Camaro chasing each other on a local highway. The Camry collided with a street sign at an exit, causing it to stop at an intersection. The arrest report said Geddes “who was sitting in the passenger side of the Camry, exited the vehicle and walked towards the Camaro.” The getaway driver for Geddes told Dallas Police Ruvalcaba then pulled out a gun, shooting Geddes. The shoplifter died a short time later, police said. source
Ruvalcaba was arrested shortly after the shooting and booked into jail. He has since posted bond.
Geddes leaves behind a girlfriend and a 6-year-old daughter.
Ruvalcaba is being held on a $200,000 bond.
