An independent grocery store in Kitchener, Ontario caught a man allegedly stealing. Instead of punishing the him or calling police, the store decided to help him out by supplying him with a full bag of groceries, according to CTV News.
“Just witnessed a man caught stealing at our local grocery,” said a Twitter user on Monday. "Watched the owner confront him and pull fruits & vegetables out of his pack. Then heard the owner say, 'we will feed you.' 5 minutes later saw the man walking thru the parking lot with a full bag of groceries. #kwawesome"
