Moment furious workman confronts 'thief' saying 'you picked the wrong car to rob'

A furious workman armed with a shovel confronted a suspected thief and shouted: "You picked the wrong f****** car to rob."



The moment was caught on camera after a witness heard the altercation outside his house.



The workman can be seen using a shovel to smash the windows of a VW Golf after chasing it down.



Eyewitness Connor Tyrer, 22, who filmed the exchange, said the workman caught the alleged thief 'in the act' and then gave chase until the suspect's VW crashed.



The expletive-laden footage shows the man call the other a 'piece of s**t' as he accuses him of 'robbing my van', the Manchester Evening News reports.



Carrying a shovel, he shouts at the man: "You picked the wrong f****** car to rob."



A voice asks what happened and the man shouts: "I just caught him robbing my van. All my f****** work tools, the lot."



Walking back to the man's black Golf he says 'all my f******' gear's in here isn't it, some of us have to work for a living'.



The man then retrieves tools from the black Golf, before shouting at the apparent thief: "F****** £120 each them."
