Don't the employees have the right to detain someone until the police arrive? Besides dude biting I see nothing wrong with what they did. If dude would have just sat down he wouldn't have ended up naked.
Snickers or not its theirs. Maybe they were charging $10,000 for a Snicker bar. Cost doesn't matter, what does, is that he was trying to steal. What if he was trying to steal some of your shoes? There just shoes, let him have them right? If he wasn't trying to steal, then why was he fighting to leave? And no you cannot walk into a store and put anything in your pockets, that proves you intend to steal. At least if I was in the jury thats what I would think.
The owner needs to train his employees on how to better handle situations like that.
Our system should not give that thief anything. If he wasn't doing something wrong, nothing wrong would have never happend to him.
I cannot believe cats is defending him.. I would have been at the register asking someone to ring me up so I can leave. lol
