Brazilian Justice: Thief Hog Tied & Placed On Ant Hill After Being Caught Trying To Rob Home By Locals [Video]

Brazilian citizens aren't calling the police or waiting for courts to decide the fate of criminals. Instead, they hand out their own form of vigilante justice.



Locals caught a man attempting to break into a home in Teresina, in the Brazilian state of Piaui. They beat him up, hog tied his legs and arms behind his back, before picking him up and placing him onto an ant hill.

The would-be robber can be heard screaming and crying as the ants bite him.

The footage was uploaded to a Brazilian Facebook and YouTube page of "Police Support," along with a message:


Thief tried to rob the house of a family and was arrested by residents in the neighborhood Dirceu 1 in Teresina. After being tied (and tied tightly by the way) Locals played over the anthill. Signal that the population no longer take it anymore so roving and start reacting
