Robbery at a T.J. Maxx store in California Goes Viral
Apparently earlier today (May 02) a video of a white man taking matters into his own hands and stopping one of two young black girls who were stealing purses from a T.J. Maxx store in California has gone viral!
It seems the young women were attempting to get away with several purses in toe, and what is being called by local news outlets as a “good Samaritan” stepped in and stops one of the young ladies by physically accosting her and throwing her to the ground!
ABC News reported that the young ladies were able to get away eventually, and it is unclear exactly what items were stolen, and so far, no arrests have been made.
Twitter users went to the bird app to express their feelings about the debacle, of course some on the side of the young lady and others happy the man stepped in as a good citizen.
TJ Maxx Customer Stops Thief – Check out social media reactions below:
What good is loss prevention if they stand around while the store is being looted. Every state should have laws allowing them to be armed.

Can’t support the customer reaction. Also, nobody wants to live in a society where people feel comfortable committing crimes in broad daylight like this.

Good, we need more individuals like this out there. The sooner people start realizing this isn’t a 3rd world country, and can’t act without consequences, the sooner our country will be on a better track.

Even though that is shoplifting. That man assaulted that girl. He should have just minded his own business. And got a license plate number and description of the get away car.

Corp is not what they are saving. He did it for ppl who pay for things but prices go up bcuz of thieves like these. It’s not the 1st time they’ve stolen & it won’t be the last.
Give this man an award!
I don’t condemn violence, but Thank you for trying sir.
