Too much? security guard arrested after alleged assault of shoplifter caught on video

That probably more effective than the punishment the law gives them.

Stupid ass old muslim or latino maybe tryna act tough on a man doing his job effectively, what a disgrace

In todays climate of unchecked crime, violence? "Too much"? Hell to the no! If anything it needs to be dialed up

Provided no wrongful deaths or undue incidental injuries but the problem drastically outweighs the procedural / policy risks

Team him up with Fred the bodybuard.

Okay African security guards are 10x better than UK ones! Here they ask nicely too put the stolen goods back. And if that fails they blow their whistle and hide in the corner. Scary men

LOL is he available?

This is how thieves should be treated.

He's just pissed off he's got to be security, instead of sitting at a desk sending emails all day pretending he's a prince with a massive cheque that needs funds to clear it.

Why the hell are they sticking up for that rat thief...

This is what should have been happening for years. This why these thieves do this because nobody ever does anything. These other bleeding hearts can't take it when a real man beats some deserved ass

I hope they fire him so I can hire him.

Give this security guard a medal, a raise and a day off with an apology!

THAT immigrant stays

The security guard did nothing wrong. He gets punished while the thief probably gets off free.
