A woman who allegedly pushed razor blades into loaves of bread at two Biloxi, Mississippi, Walmart stores was arrested on Tuesday.

Camille Benson, 33, of Texas, has been charged with attempted mayhem. Her bond is set at $100,000.

Harrison County Jail records on Wednesday morning do not list an attorney for Benson who could be reached for comment on her behalf. A message left at a phone number listed for a possible relative of Benson was not immediately returned.

Customers reported finding the razor blades at a Walmart Supercenter and a Walmart Neighborhood Market, said Lt. Candace Young, a public information officer for the Biloxi Police Department.

Walmart employees told police a customer first reported finding a razor blade in a loaf purchased from the Walmart Supercenter on Dec. 5. On Dec. 8, a customer who bought a loaf at the Walmart Neighborhood Market also reported finding a razor blade.

After another customer complained to the Walmart Supercenter on Sunday, employees inspected the merchandise and found several more loaves had been tampered with, law enforcement officials said.

The police department was notified on Monday.

In a press release, the department asked anyone who bought bread from those Walmart locations to inspect the loaves and report any findings.

“The health and safety of our customers is always a top priority,” Walmart said in a statement. “We have removed and thoroughly inspected all potentially affected products at impacted stores in Biloxi. We appreciate law enforcement for their swift action and will continue cooperating with them as they investigate.”

The Biloxi Police Department said it does not believe any other stores have been targeted.

If customers purchase a product that has been tampered with, they should immediately throw it out and visit their local Walmart for a full refund, the company said.

Is that the right advice? I thought they'd want the customer to keep the loaf as evidence for the police.

So.....you're telling me after two reports of razorblades in bread they waited 6 DAYS to check??

EDIT: Reading comprehension fail I guess. I re-read the article and it does say one was supercenter another Neighborhood market. I've never lived somewhere with two Walmarts lol. However, I still think they should have investigated the 1st incident. It would have taken a long time to monitor footage, but eventually they did it. So why wait? Either you have someone putting razor blades in your bread, or you have someone trying to make a false report against you. Seems negligent even if the stores didn't know about the other incidents.

Please no one tell my mom or she’ll say “well be careful if you get bread” every time I go to Walmart
