HOW FAR CAN YOU GO TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY?
We saw the confronting footage of a wild brawl at an IGA supermarket in East Victoria park. The fight broke out after a group of friends were confronted by shop keepers, who accused them of stealing iced coffees. It resulted in a number of people being pepper sprayed, and a 16-year-old boy was stabbed in the arm. Police are yet to lay any charges, but while the group of teenagers say they were attacked first, the shop keepers say they were simply trying to protect their business. So how far can you go to protect yourself and your property before YOU could be in trouble with the law?
