A Kansas man was arrested this week for allegedly posing as an employee for Walmart — telling a female shopper he was an “asset protection officer” and that she needed to come with him to the back of the store — where he attacked and raped her, cops say.

Justin Metz, 42, singled out the woman at a Walmart in Atchison on U.S. Route 73 earlier this month and kidnapped her under the guise of a security guard, according to the local Hays Post news website and Fox affiliates KCTV and WDAF.

Metz allegedly approached the 32-year-old shopper as she was leaving the store and told her he was an “asset protection officer” who needed to speak with her, the Atchison Police Department reports.
