**What is seen in the video**
It is clearly visible in the video that a young man is sitting on the wall near the balcony of the building and a bright light is falling on him from below. It seems that he had climbed up with the intention of stealing but got stuck in the middle, neither able to move forward nor retreat. People in the neighborhood saw him and came forward to help. According to the caption of the post, the local people not only rescued him safely but also fed him and advised him not to indulge in criminal activities like theft in future. Not only this, he also paid the taxi fare to reach his house.
**People’s reaction**
The comments on the video are quite interesting. One user jokingly commented that the thief must have been torn between saving his life and his honour. Another user commented that the thief would probably commit the crime again because once someone takes such a drastic step, it is difficult to expect him to reform. One comment said that such incidents may embolden thieves in the future, as they may feel that people will treat them well even after being caught. Meanwhile, a user joked that this was perhaps the only case of theft in history in which the thief got both travel allowance and food. Some people even joked that next time the thief would probably inform the building owner in advance. Overall, this video is spreading rapidly on social media.
