    Armed police chased a suspect through a Florida Walmart full of customers, newly-released footage shows.

    Marion County Sheriff’s Office said officers arrested Joshua Comer, 36 for extortion, battery on a law enforcement officer, possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, carrying a concealed firearm, sexual cyber-harassment, resisting arrest without violence, criminal mischief, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

    Police found Comer's vehicle parked at a Walmart in Dunnellon.

    They entered the building and found him pushing a shopping trolley before embarking on a chase.

    Police detained Comer; they said a search revealed that he had a stolen handgun, ammunition, and two clear pipes that tested positive for fentanyl.

    The department said Comer was arrested and remains in custody without bond.
