To think he should of called the police

[WrappedInABlankie]

A woman in boots leans into pram and tries to strangle the baby

Wth is this world coming too, he just let her stroll out the shop!

He definitely should have have have have have ffs have called the police.

Oh my God, what is wrong with people?!

Well obviously in retrospect he should but I'm guessing the mother was too shocked to immediately explain what had happened and he probably hadn't seen the footage at that point. I'm sure that he didn't just think "that woman's a danger to children" and let her go.

Should have should have should have!!!!

I'm guessing the police were called?!

Isn't it the police that have appealed for information and released the CCTV film?

Far and firefly got there before me.

HAVE

just for emphasis op.

He should have, he should have, he should have have have.

But didn't - I think it may come back to haunt him.

Yes now she nowhere to be found.

The fact is he should of stopped her from leaving until he know exactly what happened and then rang the police whilst making keeping her in the store. Not ask her to leave and show her the way out whilst people now have to and get her from a description and not to grate CCTV

Praise be I'm not alone! I was waiting for the 'grammar nazi' inevitable kicking!

And my 'inevitable' is in completely the wrong place there so I'm offering my backside up for a good justified kicking!

Tedious pedantry - tedious, tedious, tedious fuckers YAWN feckless twat more like

HAVE.

If it's such an issue as MNHQ to change it for you (Y)

He should have escorted her to the office and called the police.
I guess he just wanted to get her out as quick as possible seeing as he'd been following her around the store anyway which means he was already suspicious of her.

Would he have the authority to detain someone against their will when he didn't even actually see them do anything? I suspect not tbh.

He might not have known exactly what happened, he might have thought she was just hassling the other lady and got the full story afterwards.

Is a security guard actually allowed to detain someone? What a scary thing to happen.

I don't believe a security guard has the authority to obtain unless a theft has taken place.

I do believe the women is unstable and needs finding asap.

Of course they are mind, what do you think they do with shoplifters until the police arrive?

And no, not bored at all thanks Norma.

HAVE.

I wish the grammar police would fuck off too

Jesus, go and have sex or something...or maybe a glass of wine but ffs lighten up.

YANBU OP. This has just come on the news and I can't believe he let her go.

Or a hamster
