Hero dad makes dramatic citizen’s arrest, tackling armed would-be burglar

A heroic father’s quick thinking and bravery were caught on CCTV as he disrupted a daylight robbery attempt at a jewelry store in Bendigo Marketplace. Anthony Haby, 31, and his partner Jane Fleming were shopping when they heard screams and what sounded like gunshots coming from Stearns Showcase Jewelers. Without hesitation, Haby rushed into the store and confronted a man in his 20s armed with a hammer, smashing open glass display cases in an alleged robbery attempt.

In a dramatic turn of events, Haby tackled the would-be thief to the ground and performed a citizen’s arrest, pinning him down until police and security arrived. Meanwhile, Fleming helped staff exit the store and comforted terrified employees. Staff member Tina Carson praised Haby for his selfless actions, calling him an “Aussie hero” for his quick thinking and bravery in a dangerous situation.

Despite the praise, Haby remained humble, stating that he simply did what he felt needed to be done. He expressed relief that no one was hurt during the incident and downplayed his role as a hero, emphasizing that anyone would have acted in a similar manner. Store Manager Cheryl Luvara commended Haby’s bravery and nominated him for a bravery award, acknowledging his courage and selflessness in a challenging moment.

The alleged offender appeared in court and was remanded in custody until August. The business updated customers on the incident via a Facebook post, assuring them that staff members and customers were safe and receiving support. They also expressed gratitude towards Haby for his heroic actions and praised the swift response of the management team and staff at Bendigo Marketplace.

Haby’s actions exemplify the courage and selflessness that can make a difference in dangerous situations, and his bravery should be recognized and celebrated.
