A man is being praised for his good timing after he was caught on video using his grocery cart to help police nab a shoplifting suspect in a Walmart parking lot in Georgia.
The quick-thinking Good Samaritan appeared to time the exact moment the suspect would run past his cart before pushing it in front of his path in video the Peachtree City Police Department released last week.
The cart knocks the suspect to the ground, allowing officers to catch up and apprehend him. One officer pats the citizen, whose identity was not released, on the shoulder as others help pick up items that fell out of his cart.
The incident happened last month at a Home Depot in Peachtree City, located about 30 miles south of Atlanta.
The suspect had taken items from the store and ran into the neighboring Walmart parking lot, FOX5 Atlanta reported.
The shoplifting suspect, Marcus Smith, was charged with felony shoplifting and obstruction.
