Okay I’m sure we have some version of citizens arrest in at least some states. But most citizens don’t agree with the practice, and it’s rarely acted on, because a lot of people here have guns. Merchandise is definitely not worth losing your life over, or in his case, professional reputation. I hope his shoppers stay out his store seeing how he treated this woman. Stealing is a huge problem for people who have businesses, especially small, and some do close because of it. I definitely feel for these business owners. However I could never agree with citizens arrests or physically apprehending people who steal because it’s simply not worth the risk in my opinion.
