walmartPeople do strange and cruel things. Apparently at times for no reason at all. This appears to be clearly the case in a bizarre event which took place at Walmart in Cambria County, Pennsylvania.

Whatever was dropped into that tank, caused nearly 1000 fish to die, causing a loss of $4000.00 to Walmart.
