Er, did this tourist just stop a thief in Dublin with a tin of Aldi beans?

Wtf.

THIS CURIOUS FOOTAGE arrived in our inbox this morning.

It appears to show a tourist taking in the nice weather on Merrion Square, only to be accosted by a thief who makes a grab for his camera bag.

The first thing he managed to grab in an attempt to stop her… was a tin of Aldi beans from his shopping.

They worked suspiciously well in taking her down…

Bad language within… and you might want to lower your volume.

Aldi beans… the real star of the show.
