"Going to jail": Video of Dollar General manager hitting shoplifter with a car leaves netizens shocked

A Dollar General manager has sparked controversy on social media after a video of the woman chasing an alleged shoplifter went viral online. Reportedly, the woman was chasing the robber in her car while he was on his bicycle. However, things got intense when the Dollar General manager rammed her car into the shoplifter, leading to him, his cycle, and the alleged stolen goods falling down.

After this, the man on the cycle and the Dollar General manager indulged in a verbal spat and abused one another. The manager was then seen loading all the stolen items into her car and leaving the site.

While the manager threw the bicycle to one side, the man also threw a bunch of other things at the manager's car in anger. While the manager might have done the right thing by chasing the thief and getting the things back, she is now facing backlash, as the violent video left netizens in shock.

Several netizens took to the comments section of @DailyLoud's post about the incident and shared their thoughts on the same.
