They beat a brazen thief with a stick

A disturbing incident took place at a 7-Eleven store in California, where a brazen thief was caught in the act of filling a garbage can with items stolen from the shelves. Faced with this delicate situation, the store's employees decided to take matters into their own hands. Ignoring the thief's threats and a customer's advice to leave it to the authorities, they bravely confronted the suspect. Using a large wooden stick, the employees subdued the thief by beating him and holding him down. This case highlights a wider problem of shoplifting that is becoming increasingly prevalent across the country.
