Gas store Clerk who is a MMA Champion used his Skills to surprise the thieves. Feature footage of South Side accommodation store representative Mayura Dissanayake's The men who attempted to hold up his service station didn't know about his skills.Boy they quickly learned. LOL!!
According to sources, Dissanayake was behind the counter on July 10 at a Fuel Depot in South Wayside, when he saw his collaborator pulling into the parking garage in the wake of coming back from the bank. The colleague had evidently been trailed by a gathering of men in a SUV, who rose up out of the auto and began thumping him and this being seen on camera by the "CHAMPION".
A five-time MMA champion who's been preparing for 10 years, Dissanayake promptly sprung to action, heading out to the parking garage to safeguard his associate. "The main fellow I saw, I simply kicked him in the face," Dissanayake told sources. "At that point I punched the other gentleman."
The aggressors promptly withdrew, leaving one of the homeboys, 33-year-old Odell Mathis, behind on the ground. Dreading he was outfitted with a blade or weapon, Dissanayake place Mathis into accommodation, in the same way that he does in the ring, until police landed to capture him.
We should all learn that we must not assume the impossible as a champion can quickly prove you his success, and maybe wont be pleasant but will do it with dignity as the champ did.

articianDude... no one going to mention the unnecessary brutality?
I would have done the exact same thing if I were angry enough. Would have kicked their heads clean off. But I can't get over that no one will even comment on the repeated kicks to the body and head of a person already in submission (look it up, newscasters).
Anyway, glad the thieves didn't get away.
newtboyThe rules are different for a citizen arrest from arrests by trained, well equipped officers. When an untrained citizen puts themselves in danger to effect an arrest of a violent subject, as I understand it they may use any force they deem necessary to keep the subject controlled, up to and including deadly force. Since the guy kept moving, MMA did have the right (but agreed, not the need) to keep kicking....in my eyes anyway.
The guy also wasn't in submission, he was trying to get up (until the last 2 kicks at least).
A few 'extra' kicks to the head is the chance you take when you violently attack another person. It is only unwarranted when the suspect/perp is in complete submission or control, which he was not as long as he was still moving or trying to get up...or when his accomplice is advancing towards him with the obvious intent to 'rescue' him.
The attendant didn't have any weapons, but there's no telling what the robbers had. That makes the robbers a deadly threat until they are spread eagle on the ground with hands out.
Now if he (and his friends/co-workers) had shot this guy 47 times because he moved, that would certainly be excessive.

mxxconI'm pretty sure this is a dupe. I've seen this video on sift before.
articianI understand the "justification", though I don't agree with it, I would have done even worse if I were there.
My reaction is more critical of the tone of the media than the subjects in the footage. Newscasters who will warn sensitive viewers when they might show raw meat or a dead bird onscreen, but almost applaud the violence as it's happening here. It sends a terrible and wrong message that brutality is okay if you're "the good guy".

SDGundamXYeah, it must be in the deadpool somewhere... my googlefu is apparently unable to conjure it up.
EDIT: Found it. Killed by @blackfox42 so it's fair game.
