Man charged after stopping suspect WEYMOUTH, England, July 8 (UPI) -- A Weymouth, England, man said he has been charged with assault after he detained a man who broke a business' window. Steve Kink, 47, said he went outside his wife's bar when he heard an alarm go off in a nearby cell phone store and confronted two men standing near the store's broken window, The Daily Mail reported. "I accused one of them of smashing the window and he said 'what ... has it got to do with you?'" Kink said. "He then took a swing at me and punched me just under my left eye. I grabbed hold of him and managed to sweep one of his legs from under him and I held him there by putting the toe of my shoe on his shoulder blade. "There were lots of other people around at this stage and somebody had hold of the other bloke he was with. When the police arrived I stepped back and he kicked off at them. When he was put in the police car he tried to kick in the windows," he said. However, Kink said the man was eventually released with a caution for criminal damage -- and a few days later, police showed up at Kink's home to arrest him for assault. A police spokesman confirmed the charge. upi.com reason.com
