Don't mess with 7-Eleven staff! in Brooklyn


This shocking video captures the moment a thief was stripped naked in a struggle with store assistants at a Brooklyn 7-Eleven who restrained him as he tried to make off with a box of candy bars.

Filmed on a cell phone, the footage shows the man being chased round the store by two uniformed staff members, knocking things off the shelves as he goes.

They grab hold of him as he lurches toward the front door with such force that he drags them out with him.

As they struggle to pull him back inside the man grabs onto the door, fiercely standing his ground.

They grab him by his shirt which he quickly shakes out off so they instead get a hold of his vest, tearing it as they do.

Half naked the man continues to struggle, desperate to flee the store with his loot.

At first he cries out 'I ain't got nothing' over and over, before changing his story to 'it's only one box', apparently confessing to the theft attempt.

Animated bystanders chip in, commenting on the action. One yells: 'Yo yo yo, smash and run, smash and run!

'This n***** wild!'

Apparently disgusted by the way in which the shop attendants are treating the would-be-robber, onlookers question their behaviour as the man claims he is being bitten.

'Why you biting him? What y'all doing man?' the man filming the scene shouts.

As the camera focuses one assistant can be seen standing behind the man, his arms wrapped tightly around his waist in restraint, appearing to bite his back.

The struggle continues in the doorway, with the man's hand getting trapped between the door and the frame.

Clearly no match for the desperate strength of the accused shoplifter, the two assistants are dragged around as he tries to shake them off, until eventually a third member of staff joins in.

Still they struggle to restrain him and his clothes are gradually torn off in the process of trying to gain control of the situation.

At the end of the almost four-minute-long video the assistants finally manage to get the man over to the back of the store, dressed only in his boxer shorts and trainers.

They bundle him into a back room as bystanders shout for someone to call 911, the camera panning round to show the destruction left in the wake of the struggle.
