The broad-bladed knife was packaged in plastic, and the man took off the wrapping and walked away from the area with the machete in his hand. He reportedly made his way to a beverage cooler and removed an energy drink. He chugged the beverage, and an employee tried to talk to him. He allegedly responded by swinging the blade at the worker before walking out the door with it. After he left Home Depot, the man reportedly went to a liquor store in the area.
