Doesn't say who client was or if in mall or what.
Sounds like this guard is gonna get off easy.
Shouldn't he be charged with "attempted murder" of thief? Sounds like thief was no threat to anyone at anytime and certainly not after exiting the store.
Would "all needed force to detain shoplifter" apply here??? How else you gonna stop an 18yr old in full sprint and you already way behind? IIRC none of the shoplifter detain laws have any limit on force required to detain. "Whatever it takes" but not more. IM(legal)O that also means "may use whatever you have on hand, if it injurers the Subject because he refused to be detained that is his problem".
This is why I avoid "public contact" gigs, and would quit on the spot if things got "hairy". I don't think T-Mobile is gonna be providing this guy a good lawyer. Maybe they will, since parents of victim should be suing Mall and T-Mobile for hiring this guy.
Sounds like it was matter of time till this guy "Happened". Guys like this make CA's new "shrink's permission required for gun permit" sound like good idea.
Interesting case to watch.
PS T-Mobile sucks. Had them and their lame service cost me time and money. Walmart family PREPAID NO CONTRACT runs on same and is cheaper.
