An officer responded to Target, located at 5580 Seven Mile Dr., for a physical disturbance involving 18-year-old Emmanuel Joseph Nicolas around 7:25 p.m. Sunday, according to an arrest report from the Wildwood Police Department.

Upon arrival, the officer met with one of Nicolas’ coworkers in front of the store. She stated the incident started when she let Nicolas borrow her AirPods. When she asked for them back, he told her that he did not have them, the report said.

They talked about it, but he still claimed to not have them, so she walked away to finish her job. She confronted him again and saw the AirPods in his pocket, deciding to take them and walk away. She had gone on break, and he started following her when she came back inside to keep working, the report said…
