A suspected shoplifter resisting arrest had his case reviewed by the public on YouTube over the Christmas holiday. Peel Regional police have also reviewed the video and concluded that security guards from Bramalea City Centre did not use too much force to finally take the man into custody. The video, shot on a phone with comments of the photographer on the tape, was published on Dec 24, 2014 on YouTube. The written description on YouTube was that a “suspected shoplifter gets a beat down from wa-na-be cops (security) at Bramalea City Centre Mall.” Nonetheless, it is clear the man is resisting and according to police he is uninjured from the incident. He has also apologized for his behavior, they say. When officers arrived, the suspect was already under arrest by Paragon Security guards. “He (the suspect) was co-operative upon our arrival and he was apologetic to everybody involved in this occurrence,” said a police spokesperson.
