BATAVIA, N.Y. — The Genesee County Sheriff's Office is investigating after deputies say a man entered the Batavia Walmart Saturday night, broke a display case, and stole several video game consoles.
Deputies say the incident happened just before 10:30 p.m. The suspect allegedly told an employee he had a gun, though he didn't actually display a weapon nor did anyone observe one.
The suspect then took off with Nintendo Switch devices, according to deputies. He left the area in a vehicle before police arrived.
The store was evacuated until responding law enforcement deemed it safe for people to return inside.
New York State Police and the City of Batavia Police Department assisted at the scene.
Anyone with information on the case is asked to call the Genesee County Sheriff's Office at (585) 343-5000.
