AHA MEDIA at the scene of a supected thief being tackled in the middle of Main and Hastings in Vancouver Downtown Eastside
The tackler held the other man down in the middle of the street holding up traffic until a group of Vancouver cops came and arrested the man.
The following photographs are of the incident:
Below are two photos of the “thief” being held down in the middle of the Main and Hastings intersection by the tackling man with 2 other private secuity guards looking on as cars drove past.


In the next photo, a passerby watched as a Carnegie Centre security guard looked in on the situation between the two men.

The next three photos show members of the Vancouver Police Dept taking charge of the situation and apprending the suspect.



The next five photos show Skip Everall, Head of Security at Carnegie Centre observing the Vancouver Police Officers question both the suspect and the man who tackled him.
Skip Everall and the rest of the Carnegie Centre Security guards always do a great job in ensuring that members of Carnegie Centre always have the utmost in safety and protection.





The situation resolved with the suspect being herded off toward Vancouver Police Station. When the person in custody is being escorted by Law officers it’s nicknamed the “Walk of Shame” in the Vancouver Downtown Eastside.
