Pregnant woman says Walmart employee made her lift shirt to prove she didn't shoplift

Pautke complied, lifting up her shirt in front of other employees and customers. After proving that she had not stolen any items, the employee told her to have a good day, Pautke said.

Pautke told KOB that the incident was humiliating and embarrassing and that the employee could at least have taken her into a room to search her. She reported the incident to the Santa Fe Police Department.

Walmart provided KOB with a written statement addressing the incident, which said, “We're sorry for the experience Ms. Pautke had in our store. We take this seriously and are looking into it. We will take action as appropriate.”
