SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- A story shared by Governor Gavin Newsom is getting a lot of attention. He said he confronted a Target worker in the Sacramento area who didn't stop a thief from stealing.
Newsom told the story moments before a Wednesday press conference involving the mayors of California's big cities.
He said he had the encounter with the Target employee after seeing a shoplifter.
"He picks it up and keeps walking out as we're checking out," Newsom said of the shoplifter he said he witnessed, he then went on to what the employee said, "The woman says, 'Oh, he's just walking out,' 'He didn't pay for that' I said, 'Well, why don't you stop him?' She goes, 'Oh, the governor,'"

Newsom said that worker did not recognize him at first.
"The governor lowered the threshold,'' Newsom said the worker told him, "'There's - there's no accountability,' I said that's just not true."
Though Newsom didn't say what he saw the shoplifter steal or the value of it, he told the worker that at $950, California has the tenth toughest threshold in the U.S. for grand theft.
"She looks at me twice and then she freaks out," Newsom said of the moment the worker finally recognized him, "She calls everyone over, 'Who wants to take photos?' I'm like, 'No, I'm not taking a photo. We're having a conversation. Where's your manager? How are you blaming the governor?' And it was, you know, $380 later, and I was like, 'Why am I spending $380, everyone (else) can walk the hell right out.'"
