In Puebla yesterday, as a punishment, a man was stripped and paraded throughout the center of this town carrying a huge poster that said “thief”. He was caught and apprehended by locals.
Although authorities did not release the identity of the suspect, it is known that he was caught yesterday trying to steal merchandise valued at several thousand pesos that was loading the merchandise onto a truck.
After hearing what happened and fed up with the crime in the area, owners from different businesses and even some locals joined together and decided it would waste too much time to go to the police and then to the prosecutor. They chose to chastise him in an unusual and embarrassing way.
The people chose to take off his clothes and began to walk him by the town Center wearing a sign that said “Know me- I am a thief”.
An eyewitness who requested anonymity reported everything above.
