11/02/2010 - Man smashes 29 TVs in Wall Mart

A 23-year-old man in the US walked into a Wal-Mart store, fetched a metal baseball bat from the shop and smashed 29 flat-screen televisions, police have said.

According to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, police arrested Westley Strellis, from Lilburn near Atlanta, Georgia, and charged him with 29 counts of criminal damage to property in the second degree.

The televisions sets displayed in the store's electronics department are estimated to be worth over $22,000 (£14,000).

People present at the store during the incident told police that Strellis picked a metal baseball bat from the sporting goods section and headed to the electronics department and destroyed the televisions on display.
