Shoplifting is a serious offense period. It is quite a regular at some places, but it must be dealt with strictly. A Twitter video depicts a JD Sports security guard taking on a group of suspected shoplifters solo. This brawl has taken place at the Westfield Stratford City in England where people witnessed a lot of violence live.

The internet is widely applauding the security officer who stood up against these hooligans. The main issue with shoplifting is that the culprits feel they can get away with it. It’s only when security intervenes that the perpetrators can be taught a lesson.

A video was posted on Twitter, by ‘Seeing is Believing.’ It showed a security guard being outnumbered by three to four men, with a lot of shouting and pleading. The security person looked composed as he faced this tall task. No amount of threats or physical abuse or swearing deterred him from the punishment he dished out. We see a lot of headbutts, punches, and hits delivered by the security personnel. And towards the end, we see one of the alleged shoplifters refusing to let go of the security and clinging to him like glue.

It’s quite shocking to see that no one, absolutely no one, offered to help the security guard. This is so not expected, especially when things could have turned gruesome and ugly after a point. And the security was all alone in the task. There’s also a woman’s voice heard in the background, pleading with the security guard to stop the scene.

The noteworthy incident lead to massive attention from netizens who quickly expressed their reactions.

How did the internet perceive this entire episode?

The internet is not just lauding the security guard but also pointing out instances where things were not in favor of the latter. Let’s find out.

One user expressed a very valid point. When the kids were trying to attack the security guard, no one faced an issue. But as soon as the security guard took charge, people had a problem and asked him to leave the kids alone. Why this sort of discrimination?

Another user talks about the woman in the background who is seen yelling her lungs out ‘ Please Stop.’ Who was she and why was she concerned about the attackers?

 

Another user appreciates the guy’s sense of duty. The guy in question is a security guard, and he scuffled to protect the valuables from getting lifted off the shopping center.

 

This is by far the most contradicting aspect of this incident. People were asking the security guard to stop instead of the robbers. That’s quite shocking to know, tweeted another user.
