A shoplifter fought with a loss prevention employee at a Little Rock Target before fleeing the store with a camera Wednesday night, police said.

The Little Rock Police Department responded around 6:50 p.m. Wednesday in reference to a shoplifting at the retailer at 420 S. University Ave. in the Park Avenue shopping center.

The 29-year-old employee told police that he confronted someone inside the store as they attempted to take an instant camera valued at around $100. At one point, the shoplifter was able to flee and headed south from the store.
