According to local reports, a man who allegedly reportedly smashed into a South Carolina Costco apparel display before being helped detained by customers and employees reportedly had to use a machete and pickaxe.

According to WSPA 7News, Greenville officers responded to the Costco on Woodruff Road on Thursday after receiving information that an armed robbery was taking place, citing the Greenville Police Department.

Jose Alejandro Giraldo, 24, allegedly entered the store and entered the jewellery counter-top through the display cases.

Giraldo reportedly indicated that he had a weapon when confronted, and reportedly had a knife and spade.

Callers first described the weapon used to split the display cases as appearing to be a nail, according to FOX Carolina, according to a citation from the police. Eventually, according to the store, police confirmed that Giraldo had a pickaxe and a knife.

Until officers arrived, users detained Giraldo inside the warehouse, according to FOX Carolina.

Employees of the retailer apparently assisted in restraining the suspect.

WSPA reported that one client suffered an injury while helping to defeat Giraldo, which necessitated the intervention of disaster medical personnel. The company’s injuries were not promptly disclosed by the store.

According to both media reports, Giraldo was accused of third-degree assault and battery and armed assault.

The Greenville County Detention Center later made available a mugshot of Giraldo.
