Caught a teenager trying to steal alcohol from a store. So I brought him inside and made him apologize to the manager, he was terrified. I don't think he'll be trying that again

I'm sure when you told him you were Police Chief he wet himself and that you did not tell him you had bigger fish to fry.

This was a great way to go about that. They'll always remember that someone is watching

This happened to me a couple days ago. Caught a few kids stealing snacks from the gas station. They had to go back in and apologize and help the store clerk with a few tasks

Wow, I know they were terrified. They may not ever drink again lol

You did the only right thing. They need to know that what they did was wrong and that everything they do has consequences and that they need to face it because they chose to do it. But there is no assurance that he will ever do it again.

That was the right thing to do! I am glad there was no unnecessary force or violence. Let's hope he learned his lesson.

Oh my! Must have been traumatizing and humiliating on his part. I hope that would be his last time.
