Tom Hardy doesn’t just play a badass in movies, according to this latest story, Tom Hardy is badass in real life.
Yesterday, Hardy chased down a thief on foot, made a citizen’s arrest, and then declared, “I caught the cunt.” And this wasn’t your run of the mill foot chase on the streets. This was straight out of a cop movie. Check out the route:
Hardy had to jump over walls, sprint through a garden, fight off Batman, and save Charlize Theron before he caught the criminal.
The whole incident started when the criminal stole a moped, ran a red light, and crashed into a Mercedes. He took off running and was eventually captured by Hardy.
Is that not the worst crime ever? “Hey, how did you end up in jail?” “Well, I stole something. Immediately screwed up and broke the item I stole. Tried to run away. And got caught by Bane.” If you’re going to steal something, you can’t lose it or damage it within seconds of stealing it. It gets better. The thief had a partner in all of this, but his partner decided not to run after crashing the moped. He realized the whole thing immediately went to hell and cut his losses. The dude caught by Hardy is officially the world’s worst criminal.
Aren Pullen, an onlooker whose garden was destroyed by the criminal and Hardy, said:
“It was mental – like he’d switched to superhero mode in an action movie. Two boys on the nicked moped had jumped a red light and smashed into a car.”
“Tom must have been walking down the road. He went off like a shot in pursuit and looked furious. If the kid had been dumb enough to resist I reckon Tom would have given him a good hiding.”
I suspect crime will go down after this story. Not only do criminals have to watch out for superheroes, but they have to watch out for supervillains as well. Whatever happened to giving the power back to the people, Tom?
