Hypothetical: We 'll call of the person X X walks into a store. Get inside, wraps his bags with some items from the store and get outside. The protection of security is outside, produce identification, grab the X and X for calls to take a step back into storage. The security officer has the right grasp on the X suspicion (possible witness) theft? Moreover, when X tries to run, the security officer grabs her bag and X doesn 't get it back. It is that the security theft regarded 's party? In addition, that X has the rights? Can the security features be responsible for assault and theft? Thank you!
