Re: Security guard, 20, is arrested after Asda shoplifter he tackled was killed

In a game of rugby, a rugby tackle is considered 'reasonable force' to stop the progress of the ball carrier. This theft is a circumstance with the worst, and unpredictable, outcome but the security guard took action to prevent the escape of a thief after a crime.

The security guard will anguish over this incident for the rest of his life but, if it was the initial tackle that caused the death, the thief invited it.
