“motorcycle thieves”

Wenzhou city residents bravely fighting “motorcycle thieves” praised by the country’s netizens

The entire country’s netizens in unanimous approval: Wenzhou previously had a good man who threw his bicycle, and now they have brave and bold masses that the public security department yesterday expressed appreciation for and have recommended for Good Samaritans awards.

Bold gangsters riding a motorcycle snatched a pedestrian’s bag/purse. When surrounded by Wenzhou’s city residents, the diabolical gangster brandished a 50 centimeter long blade, but no one flinched, throwing at them cardboard boxes, stools, and other “weapons” rushing forth. After this incident was reported in our paper, it incited strong reactions in society. One after another, netizens expressed: “This bunch of true men should be awarded a collective Good Samaritan award.”

In the midst of the struggle, there were several who were especially courageous, distinguished by netizens hailing them “Broom Man”, “Stool Man”, and “Cardboard Box Man”. On the morning of May 20, this reporter once again came to Huanglong Trade City Wenzhou Home Appliances market in western Wenzhou City to interview some of the participants.

We could learn something from their public spiritidness.

One for all and all for one! :smiley:

if only we could get away with that here

Saw this a few days ago on Liveleak. I love the resourcefulness of the people who attacked the thieves - it happened next to a furniture market, so the thieves found themselves being attacked with chairs, stools, bedside tables and wardrobes! Got to admire the bravery of people who stand up against a thug wielding such a massive blade, probably razor-sharp blade at that.

I understand that motorcycles have been banned in many Chinese cities due to crimes like these (or partially due to them).
