This is the moment that staff at a shop in Telford caught a thief . . . by sitting on him.
Russell Calvert, from Dawley, had stolen a hand-held computer from PC Stop in Arleston a few days earlier but was recognised by shop staff when he returned.
Calvert walked free from court with a suspended sentence.
Shop owner Waheed Iqbal has put this footage up on YouTube.
The video below shows the original shoplifting offence.
