OP- you were right to be scared and I am sorry that the store employees didn't respond/react in a more assuring or suitable manner.
I worked with metally ill adults in a community residence for over 7 yrs and am quite used to odd and off behavior. I still feel uncomfortable with a stranger when they act in a manner that is odd or threatening.
I had a client who made me completely uncomfortable and I reported him numerous times without avail. A few months after I resigned he was kicked out for making a threat to a supervisor and was shortly thereafter arrested for murdering a stranger at the social security administration. Always go with your gut when it comes to your safety and that of your child!
IF the employees knew him and felt safe they would have told him to leave. THey did not take precautions for your safety. Take it up the corporate ladder.
