A recent hilarious video of an alleged thief being punched so hard by a passerby that it nearly broke a brick wall is doing rounds on the Internet which signifies the action-packed justice that prevails in the UK. The incident which took place in Cypress Road in Droylsden, Greater Manchester, has gone viral on social media with more than a million people watching the clip.

Knock-out

In the 45 seconds gripping video, two thieves in a hoodie can be seen running from the crashed car but one turns around and runs back to get something it seems he might have left behind.

As and when the thief groped for something left behind and started running on the footpath, surprisingly a man leaps out from behind a white car and landed a hard punch on the thief that he nearly trembled and crashed into a brick wall behind him. 
After this short incident, the thief was then handed over to a man in a blue van as the passerby who punched him simply walked away.

The video was shared by Deano on Twitter.

A third user tried to explain the funny incident in his own way. 

"For anyone asking what happened, looks like they stole and crashed the car then bailed, kid, leaves his phone and goes back for it and gets webbed."

Taking a jibe at the builder who built the wall, another user replied that he would have never paid the builder as the wall went down so easily with just a single blow.
