Female thief caught by shop owner gets humiliated with a hair shave

When Chinese shopkeeper Lu Sun saw a shoplifter shoving clothes into her bag she decided she’d teach her a lesson.

In an unusual example of vigilante justice, the retailer, whose store had been hit by a spate of thefts over the previous two weeks, pinned shoplifter Li Wu to the ground, took a pair of scissors and hacked off her long dark hair.

Lu Sun, 32, had lost hundreds of pounds worth of goods from thefts at her store at a shopping centre in Wenzhou, China, so decided to keep a close watch on Li Wu when she saw her acting suspiciously.

She said: ‘I watch so many people everyday, so I can tell thieves from others easily.

‘When I noticed the woman sneaking around in the shopping mall, I knew she was up to no good.

‘So, when she came into my shop, I was alert and finally caught her in the act.’

Miss Sun was helped by a neighbouring shop owner who held Wi Lun down while she cut off chunks of her hair.

The pair then called the police and had the shoplifter arrested.

Miss Sun added: ‘I decided to do it to teach her a lesson and to send a message to other thieves in the area to stay away from my shop.’

Miss Sun is by no means the first shopkeeper to dish out a painful lesson to thieves.

Last year Edinburgh retailer Arfan Hussain became an internet sensation when CCTV footage of him apprehending a thief went viral.

The thief tried to steal £2.30 worth of milkshake – but didn’t bargain on shopkeeper Mr Hussain being a former Tae Kwon Do champion.

He was hailed the internet’s next ‘Big Man’ after he posted the CCTV footage on YouTube.
