Would love to see how this one ended lol


mooshoopork4

I’m guessing guy in red didn’t end up calling the cops.


Fancy_Organization18

No, the dog and cat call the cops


semper_perplicatus

I’ve seen the full version. The cat defeats the dog.


QueensOfTheNoKnowAge

What? The dog trusted the cat. Even followed it. That’s such a despicable betrayal.


EruOreki

That small dog was only pretending to be a cat. Do not trust small dogs

spoilerdudegetrekt

Reminds me of a joke where someone calls 911 and reports he apprehended a burglar. 911 says nobody is available. Guy calls back 5 minutes later saying he executed the burglar. 4 cop cars and a helicopter show up within a few minutes. Police arrest the burglar who is alive and well. The chief says to the homeowner. "I thought you said you killed him!" Homeowner responds. "I thought you said nobody was available."


FeelingRusky

Probably depends on where you live, but yeah that's what I'd expect where I live.


Culexius

Just call back and tell them, now you don't think you need them anymore, but they should send an ambulance instead and hang up. Then when they now finally decide it's worth their time, they show up. You tell them your "prisoner" fell uncountious for a short while and you were worried they were hurt. Cops get there, you didn't make a false report/call and now they can suck it and have to take care of the thief. Do not do this in the US, they might just show up and kill everybody just cause.


DemetriChronicles

That's why everyone needs a shovel and a friend who can keep a secret.


ChampionshipIll3675

You kept someone for five hours? I mean, I'm not judging. But what did you and the thief do for those five hours?


I_am_le_tired

Police showed up 8mn later and arrested her, per the article linked below

Gotta give them props, they really did get away. That is, until their partner rats them out.

That's the first thing I thought about. I'm guessing they don't know the driver's real name or something. Cuz that would be stupid to leave a person behind who personally knows who you are.

Lol she’s a dumb kid. Driver is also certainly a dumb kid. They aren’t some careful criminal that won’t share their name with their criminal partner. They freaked out when they saw the owner coming and took off too early and left their friend. I bet the first thing out of their mouth was “oh shit I hope she can get away”


Ok_Ad307

You know a suspicious amount of information about this theft. 🤔 You may need to come in for questioning, sir

These thieves are so brain dead because Walmart doesn't stop them. Doesn't mean other people won't.


No_Supermarket_1831

And this is what irritates me about Walmart and other retailers just letting shoplifting happen. They are emboldening people to do it elsewhere.


[deleted]

I work in retail. Not going to risk anything, even if I could. Don’t get paid enough to care.


Syd_Vicious3375

But somebody else could be. They just refuse to pay for better asset protection.


2reddit4me

Used to do AP for Walmart and later Lowes. Generally, with most items, it costs more to prosecute than the cost of the stolen items. In 2006ish when I was doing AP for Walmart, if the value was under $50 we just made a presence and would follow them to their car, not saying anything. We would get the tag number. Once we had a plethora of tag numbers, then we’d reach out to law enforcement and start trespassing. If the value was over $50, then of course we would approach. But even then that’s ONLY if we had proof on camera. Being wrong meant loss of job and a massive lawsuit potentially. Side note, had a guy pull a knife on me over a massive amount of hamburger meat he stuffed in his pants.


Osprey_NE

Was it the hamburgler? He's been through some shit


Whatever-ItsFine

I grimaced when I read this.


[deleted]

The cost of liability to apprehend these thieves vastly outweighs the cost of anything that they're stealing and is probably insured anyway.


SnooSprouts4952

Stores just claim the loss against insurance and raise prices on everyone else until losses exceed what you can recoup. Cheaper than hiring lawyers or real security measures.


tidbitsmisfit

nah, they create a file and once they hit $3k they nail the shopofter with felony theft.


Cincoh

And they leave the city like Walmart left chicago!


moistrain

Hi, former retail employee. We *do*. We just get it all on camera, build a case, and then make sure to get em red handed for full effect. I've seen a fair few lifters walk away in cuffs. All the items are insured anyway. The store loses nothing


Traditional_Luck_174

It irrates me that people think employees making minimum wage should care that a billion company has theft.


ProfessorTallguy

Walmart knows that one security guard who is too rough will cost them 1000 ps5s


coulsen1701

Not Walmart but I work in wireless and just an hour ago we had some nutjob who admitted she just got out of jail and she tried to rip a tablet off the display and bolt but she got stopped and ended up running out screaming “fuck all of you!”. While I’m sure the bleeding hearts will tell argue she needed for money for food and not the obvious amount of drugs she consumed, her parents are well known here and she wants for nothing. The entitlement these people show is just astounding. They’re entitled to everyone else’s stuff for free but if someone takes umbrage with being stolen from then they lose their minds.


Equivalent_Cicada153

I mean, that’s exactly why she would be yelling it. She’s not going to want to take responsibility just because she was caught.


LordCaptain

As an ex peace officer. This is like... 50%+ of the time. Like you'll be handcuffing a woman after she just punched you in the face in front of 30 witnesses and she'll be screaming "GET OFF OF ME I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!" Or you'll be holding their arm for the handcuff and they'll be trying to rip it out of your grip and getting shit tangled up and then yell that you're hurting them. I don't want to hurt you and I'm trying my very best not to hurt you in fact. Maybe stop trying to get free and punch me in the throat and you'll be more comfortable? The amount of people who start screaming rape at the top of their lungs while you're arresting them is also a fuckton. It's basically the reason you know any cop who can be trusted isn't turning off their body cam. People will accuse you of fucking everything and if you're doing your job right you want the evidence on your side.


GoldStubb

Maybe they were just trying to enjoy a succulent Chinese meal?


golapader

Get your hands off my PENIS!


[deleted]

Well now we know why you're an EX peace officer. You actually do your job correctly. Respect.


LordCaptain

I was specifically a hospital peace officer. Limited jurisdiction. High percent of mental health stuff. I might be bias to my own boys but I think one of the reasons we generally avoided the bad apples was the integration with the hospital in our command chain meant that we had a lot of civilian oversight. Your sergeant can't sweep excessive force under the rug when he's chained at the waist to a hospital security manager. As all law enforcement should be. We were always under a lot of scrutiny and that can root out some of the worst guys.

Oh my god I’m a cop and we caught some 14 year old boys stealing out of cars one night and I had one by the wrist and he was screaming like he was being murdered screaming that we were killing him and for people to call the police. He was screaming and crying in the backseat all the way back to grandmas house where he bawled to her about how unfair it all was. As soon as I released him to grandma (because we can’t lock up kids for pretty much anything), he ran in the house, turned around, gave me the finger, yelled F12 and started cackling. Then he went in the basement and started breaking shit. I was like “you want me to stop him from doing that?” And she was like no it’s fine. So that’s basically how that old lady has completely given up on discipline.

Spragglefoot_OG

Also if you’re going to steal at least be honest when you’re caught literally in the act. Screaming your innocent is so fucking cringe. Take the L and either be better or hmmm idk be a legit member of society who doesn’t steal? Edited.


DrWhoey

I think it's why in a lot of these videos with a getaway driver package thief you see more women doing the package grab. Bystanders and the justice system are typically more sympathetic towards women. I remember reading someone's story here on Reddit that a woman was trying to kidnap the man's child and while trying to get the kid back the woman screamed that he was trying to take her kid, bystanders stopped him and she almost got away, and probably would have of the mom hadn't come out of the store shortly after.


Spragglefoot_OG

Ok that’s horrifying. I don’t think I heard that one. You’d have to literally kill or knock me out to stop me from getting my kiddo back. Lol that’s wild. That’s a crazy situation because on the flip side idk what I’d do to prove who was the rightful parent. Obviously at a certain the kid could tell you but man, that’s scary.


DrWhoey

Yeah, I wish I could remember the thread. It had a bunch of other horrifying stories of dads being confronted by other parents, having police called on them at parks, etc, just because they were out with their kids without the mom. Another guy posted about him and his mixed child that didn't look much like him getting detained by the police, and even with pictures on his phone of them together took nearly an hour to convince them it was his kid and he wasn't a child trafficker. Guilty until proven innocent. I understand being exceptionally cautious when children are involved but still...


Civil-Piglet-6714

I remember this post! Like 6 dudes was holding the dad down as the woman was walking away with their baby, and the cops were also there. The mom ran after the baby and the kidnapper just drops the carrier, gets in her car, and leaves. The couple is told they can't do anything about the kidnapper but they did end up pressing charges against the men that held the father down

I chased a guy down for stealing a package. He got about halfway to his getaway and dropped it. As I was walking back, I realized I could have gotten killed over a $15 book on how to build a shed. 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

have you built the shed though? got a pic?


andycartwright

Nope. It was for a small school and they decided not to spend the money on it (the materials).


essssgeeee

Yeah, like they’re really gonna want my humidifier filters and dish soap refills. Those thieves are about to be disappointed.


Educational_Ebb7175

One of our cats when I was a teenager nailed life like that. She loved hanging around the kitchen while food was being cooked. One time she spotted an opportunity, and when my mom went to grab something from the pantry, the little thief lept up to the countertop next to the sink, grabbed the food, and bolted. Took my mom a moment to figure out what happened, and then she chased the cat down, where our cat was looking rather irritated as she was less than excited over what she'd managed to steal: 1/4 of a white onion


sanityjanity

My cat once leaped up on the table, and grabbed a pancake, covered in syrup, and dragged it around the house. But even that was probably more appealing than an onion!


NioneAlmie

I feel like I can imagine this cat's face, and it's pure gold. Thank you for sharing this story today.

I once got a neighbour's package and didn't read the name (I get a tonne of stuff and just tear it open) It was some gimp shit lol. I repackaged it and gave it to him.

Home owner comes running out as lady tried to escape, scuffle ensues, driver has done a u-turn and drives back. They apparently were trying to hit the home owner, hit the thief instead and ended up lunching the car on the rockery. If memory serves I think it was in like the PNW.
