That is so odd...
It's a liability thing. Since in most states AP isn't certified security officers, they're just regular target employees in the eyes of the law. Additionally, Target doesn't own the parking lots of many of their stores. Therefore, we'd be, for lack of better wording, "working outside of our jurisdiction."
 
You can't go into the lot in pursuit of theft subjects (even if you own the lot, both stores I've worked at own them), but I haven't had an issue if it's a situation that requires security presence. I've done it a few times, either responding to a situation and trespassing someone or calling 911. Just know you're there to defuse the situation, if it were getting that hostile, I probably wouldn't have gone out without talking to PD first anyway.
 
wow this is just FAB-u-LOUS !!!
