Former assistant manager Jennifer Ferguson and Rachel Rogers followed the robbers out of the store and called the police, who were able to track down and charge the perpetrators with felony robbery.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;No, no, no, you can march back out,&#8221; Ferguson yelled at the looters, who had allegedly struck the store several times before. &#8220;Chill, b\u2014, shut your ass up,&#8221; one of the robbers yelled back before sprinting out the door.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Despite doing the right thing, Lululemon&#8217;s regional manager fired Ferguson and Rogers without severance. The Canadian-based company has a &#8220;zero-tolerance policy&#8221; on chasing or physically engaging with a thief.

In March, rioters protesting the construction of a new police training center hurled &#8220;large rocks, bricks, Molotov cocktails, and fireworks&#8221; at officers attempting to protect the site.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;We are not supposed to get in the way,&#8221; Ferguson said of the incident. &#8220;You kind of clear path for whatever they\u2019re going to do.
