A frustrated customer took matters into his own hands, wrestling with, and even body slamming a suspected shoplifter and his associate at a Bay Area Walgreens.
Cellphone video captured by the customer, who requested only his first name of Kevin be used, shows a man putting bottles of pills into a backpack at the Walgreens in Alameda Saturday afternoon.
"I said this is a time you can make an impact, make this happen. I see him leaving the store... and I threw him to the ground," said Kevin. "I am way bigger than you and I will f*** you up!" Kevin can be heard saying to the man, who is now writhing around on the ground."I am placing you under citizen's arrest!" yells Kevin, who also blames the man for increasing prices of goods."He kept calling for his friend, and I thought he was fibbing. I thought he was faking it," said Kevin as he described the turn of events.
"He came up behind me and tried to get me in a headlock... then I picked him up by the groin and threw him to the ground," says Kevin.
