A mugger met his match when a Good Samaritan intervened after a violent robbery in Los Angeles this month, according to reports.
The shocking incident unfolded last week at an eatery in Hollywood.
An elderly man was sitting with a dog at an outdoor table when a suspect suddenly punched him and stole his wallet, Fox 11 reports.
Owner Tim Ratcliff observed the attack and immediately sprang into action.
Surveillance footage of what transpired was shared on social media.
Ratcliff can be seen jumping up and pursuing the fleeing suspect down the sidewalk.
Ratcliff tackles the suspect and the two roll into the street at the intersection of La Brea and Hollywood.
A woman identified as Ratcliff’s girlfriend can be seen collecting the wallet and its contents, which also flew into the road during the melee.
Ratcliff and his girlfriend reportedly subdued the suspect for nearly nine minutes with little help from onlookers before authorities came on the scene.
“I took him down and just waited there until the police arrived,” Ratcliff said. “Even one of the officers and I talked about it… They’re tired of it… A lot of people like myself are tired of this type of thing happening.”
“We’re seeing more and more people just not putting up with it and taking it into their own hands… which I’m glad for… and I’d happily do it again.”
The latest attacks against Info Wars are only exposing their intention to silence all of alternative media.
