Preci did you give a statement to help the man or just your friend?
I would have called the COPS asap! Actually I would have gotten involved as well....I hate to see injustice like that....
Zellers have many many cameras that for sure would have captured this incident with AUDIO....so if this man was right...that security company will have a large law suit at hand....

Rigth you are Preciosa. I agree with you. I hope the cops find more witnesses and actually handcuff those security men. That poor guy should sue Zellers, the mall, and the security agency.
Most security guards are wanna be cops....that are on constant power trips.....
If the girl was stealing....then she should have been apprehended......but if it was as bad as you say it was....then the guards went a little over board.....and they should be acounted for their actions as well.

I WENT TO YORKGATE MALL IN JANE AND FINCH...AND I WITNESSED A BRUTAL ACT...
A FRIEND AND I WENT TO ZELLERS TO BUY MY LAST MINUTE SUPPLIES FOR MY VACATION...WE WERE AT THE CHECK OUT LINE...WITH A FAMILY INFRONT OF US PURCHASING THERE ITEMS...WHEN AN UNDERCOVER SECURITY GAURD APPROACHED THE LITTLE GIRL NO OLDER THEN 7 AND ACCUSED HER OF STEALING...
A TOTAL STRANGER WITNESSED THE CONFRONTATION AND BLUNTLY APPROACHED THE SECURITY GAURD AND SAID "HEY BE NICE TO THE LITTLE GIRL" (THAT'S ALL HE SAID)...WITH THAT THE SECURITY GAURD GOT ALL OFFENSIVE AND STARTED WITH THIS GENTLEMAN..SAYING "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM...MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS...STAY OUT OF IT...BLAH BLAH BLAH...
NOW THE SECURITY GUARD KEPT ON WITH THIS AND FOLLOWED THIS GENTLEMAN OUTSIDE AND KEPT ON WITH THE CONFRONTATION...I FINISHED AT ZELLERS SO MY FRIEND AND I LEFT THE MALL...A HUGE CROWD OUTSIDE LISTENING TO THESE TWO GENTLEMEN...WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN TWO OTHER SECURITY GAURDS CAME OUT OF NO WHERE AND PINNED THE MALL WALKER AND TRIED TO OBTAIN HIM WITH HANDCUFFS...THEY WERE HURTING THE POOR MAN...HE COULDN'T BREATHE AND KEPT ON SAYING "PLEASE SOMEONE CALL THE COPS PLEASE"...PEOPLE WERE JUST IN AWW...THEN AT ONE POINT ONE OF THE SECURITY GAURDS GRABBED THE GENTLEMAN WHO WAS ON THE FLOOR AND SMASHED HIS FACE TO THE GROUND...HE BECAME UNCONSCIOUS FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES AND ALSO SUFFERED A BUSTED LIP...
TEN COP CARS APPROACHED THE SCENE...AND OBVIOUSLY WERE LOOKING FOR WITNESSES...MY FRIEND STOOD UP AND GAVE A STATEMENT...
I FOUND THIS TO BE DISTRUBING...THE SO CALLED UNDERCOVER WHATEVER SHOULD OF SHOWED THE GENTLEMAN A BANDGE OR SOMETHING...HE WAS TO BUSY TRYING TO BE A TOUGH GUY WITH A TOTAL STRANGER...BUT NOT TO BRIGHT TO BRING IT TO A PROFESSIONAL LEVEL...
WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE REALISTIC THING TO DO IN A SITUATION LIKE THIS IN THE SECURITY GAURD AND THE MALL WALKERS POSITION...???
