Man accused of attacking gun toting Walmart customer

BRANDON, Fla. — A man is accused of attacking another man who had a handgun in a holster as he shopped in a Tampa area Walmart store.
 
The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office says 43-year-old Michael Foster faces battery charges for attacking Clarence Daniels on Tuesday.
 
The Tampa Tribune reports Foster saw Daniels in the parking lot and noticed he had a gun in a holster. He followed Daniels into the store. An arrest report indicated Foster grabbed Daniels from behind in a choke hold. They fell to the ground and Foster yelled that Daniels had a gun. Daniels shouted that he had a concealed weapons permit.
 
Officials say Foster never called 911 or alerted store security about his concerns.
 
Foster remains in jail. It wasn't known whether he's hired a lawyer.
