security guard grapples with 'shoplifter' before she runs down the street dropping a trail

The supermarket employee was seen getting into a hilarious tussle with a woman after she supposedly stole a number of items from the Asda superstore in Barking, east London , on Saturday. A 49 second clip shared on social media shows the security guard trying to prevent the woman leaving with a bag for life as the pair engage in an aggressive tug of war. In another blunder, the bag then rips, causing some items to fall on the floor while the woman tries to make off with the rest of her shopping. Passersby can be seen watching on in amazement as the chaotic scenes continue, before the security guard eventually gives up and the woman disappears round a corner with some of the groceries intact.
