Handling charges
A 40-year-old man is charged with sexual abuse after groping a woman employee in Wal-Mart last Thursday night.
The employee said that she was stocking shelves about midnight when her landlord, Steven Scroggins, came into the store with his son.
The employee said that Scroggins was intoxicated and she asked him repeatedly to leave before he grabbed her breast from behind.
Scroggins attempted to grab the woman a second time and again she pushed him away.
A male employee and the store surveillance confirmed the girl's story.
Police contacted Scroggins about 1:30 in the morning on a noise complaint and questioned him about the Wal-Mart incident. He claimed that he was in love with the girl and gave her a hug.
When arrested, Scroggins admitted that he had a drinking problem and told police, "I should just let her go."
