Ok, have it your way. Tell whatever you want.

What, the truth? What a novel idea.

I have no time to waste with a smart ass.

Translation: I've got no idea and have been shooting from the hip the
whole
time. I've been called on it and now I'm running away.

Just check your info before giving all kinds of false information.

I would, strongly, suggest you take your own advice.

Sorry,

BUT YOU CANNOT be detain for further investigation by a store security.
Only police can detain for further investigation.

What fantasy world do you live in? You most certainly can be detained
by
store security. In every single state.

The store security cannot id you, he can just banned you from the store.

Wrong.

Either he places you under arrest because you shoplift or he let's you
go.

Security guards don't have arrest powers (unless you are talking about a
citizen's arrest). Wrong again.

He cannot stop you just because the alarm goes off at the exit of the
store.

You're on a roll. Wrong again.

AND NO you cannot be held by police because you refused to identify to a
security gard.

You're 1/2 right. If you refuse to ID yourself to a security guard,
it's
a
moot point since the police are on their way. Once they show up and you
refuse to ID yourself to them, then you get charged. Same end result.

I work for a police department.

Yet you are not a police officer so what's the point?
