When Marine recruits heard a robbery was going on in a Torrance mall, they jumped in to stop two of the suspects, and were able to hold them until police arrived.

, after Marine recruiters at nearby military recruitment center at the mall jumped into action.

The robbery happened Tuesday, at a jewelry store in the mall. According to Torrance police, four people wearing hoodies and covering their faces used hammers to smash the glass of the display cases and grab as much jewelry as they could. Two of the suspects were able to escape, but the other two were taken to the ground by Marine recruiters and bystanders who heard the robbery unfold, and were able to detain the two suspects, both minors, until police were able to get there."[It was] the Marines. The Marine Corps… They stepped up, they tackled them down," said Ralph, who captured the robbery on video. "Two got away, two got tackled down, and they stepped it up. That's enough. Time to fight back.

The two minors were taken into custody. Police also said that they were able to recover a "large amount" of jewelry from the scene.All the news you need to know, every day

Semper Fi, Marines! I hope we see more and more feel good stories like this.

I'm pleasantly surprised that the marine recruiters were not arrested for assault.

Sadly, if accountability citizens responsibility for safety enjoy defund police and judicial rails. Good job! The Marine recruit, Hats off. Thank you

Why are you covering the face of the Robber?

Da be black so you be racist to stop them.

Merriest Christmas wishes to the loser thugs courtesy of the USMC.

blackcrimematters ❤️🚑🚒🚔🇺🇸

They should be forced to join the Marines now

Good! Fuck that.. they got out of hand with this bullshit.

Why aren’t they wearing masks? Horrible

It’s a shame CA government doesn’t use our high tax dollars to stop this. 🫡 to the recruits though!

Lock em up 100000 years

Nice

Got to get those recruitment numbers up somehow

It should be ok to shoot these people to avoid this from happening

more of this.

Nice we need more people like that with balls ✊🏻

Here’s an idea. Pay a bounty of 50% of value of the stolen merchandise recovered to any citizen arresting a looter.

It’s funny who you don’t see on the comments 😂

Finally someone was brave enough to take one down!

All that “defund the police” bull doo-doo then you wonder why your cities turn to lawless hellscapes you got what you deserve California

Good for these Marine recruiters. They did a great job by taking these guys down.

We should have these dudes everywhere.

Good job marines so proud of u

Great job 👏

This is fabulous!!! Insurance rates are skyrocketing because of this trash!! There’s no end in sight for business owners who actually work for a living. Glad someone cares!! Hoooah!

Finally someone does something

torrance is the source of jiujitsu

Captain save a hoes🤣 aint get a dime

Make it legal to just 🔫 these criminal breed

If your a liberal and this picture makes you mad, raise your hand.

The headline is correct this time 😎🤙

Journalist, not knowing a E6 Marine from a recruit. 🤦🏻‍♂️

They need to show those losers face.

Marines: Always fighting for corporations like Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, and Dillards.

More of this needs to happen. Get involved instead of just recording. For those that are asking why are the thieves faces blurred, it's because they're minors.

Once again: the RECRUITERS are active duty US MARINES. A recruit is an individual signing up to become a Marine. The Recruiters captured the suspects! Try being accurate.

Does Torrance have their own DA, I hope this thug goes to jail so ppl there can have a Merry Christmas.

Why blur their faces?

Too bad those thieves didn’t get their skulls bashed in.

Good boy FOX11 hiding the theifs race, good boys.

the more regular citizens do this the better or towns will become. there was a time where then rule of law in a honest town ment you were gonna get dealt with 1 way or another. I think its time to start again.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Gascon gonna let em go anyway

Sweet...

Go marines

👏👏👏

And that's how it's done

Hoo rah!

That Staff Sargent is not a recruit. Semper Fi !

And the LA County DA promptly released them.

Gascon will charge them and give a reach around to the robber

Pretty sure they aren’t recruits…

Racist. Marines are notorious for propping up structural racism entities like America. Look how many Japanese they killed.

This is the most boot licking thing I have ever seen.

SemperFi
