As much as I truly, truly loathe criminals of any sort, lionizing vigilantism, especially when the self-appointed avenger threatens violence, is misguided at best and dangerous (read: deadly) at worst.

Please, if your phone is stolen, don't chase down the thief yourself. It just isn't worth it.

Bullshit. The police often don't give a shit unless you start to take matters into your own hands.

It was stolen. Taking property that obviously belongs to someone else is considered theft. And, as mentioned in this other article[1], the police were willing to get involved, but the owner preferred to keep them out of it.
