I walked over to the man managing the booth and pointed the boy out to him and told him what I'd seen. He called for security and the boy was arrested.

Another time, many years ago, I was leaving work in a city at about 1 a.m. As I started to put the key into my car door, I heard a crash and looked up to see two men taking items through the broken plate glass window they'd just broken.

I squatted beside my car trying to disappear. When they walked up the road, I got into my car and drove straight to the police station and reported what I had witnessed. I was subpoenaed to go to court as a witness. The men pleaded guilty when they found out there was an eyewitness to their crime.

If I saw someone stealing from a yardsale, I'd tell the homeowner or whoever was in charge and help them the best I could. Right is right. I'd want someone to do the same for me. When I see someone doing something wrong, my adrenaline gets pumped up.

Good for you! That's what I would do too. After I beat the crap out of 'em.
