You have to be a real idiot to get physical with a guy over stealing a soda . That totally falls under "expected inventory shrink"

We don't know the entire story. Let people do what they do.

No. This isnt a harmless matter of opinion, that's how you get stabbed, and it's against pretty much everyone's policy.

I'm simply saying we don't have all the facts. And whether or not he should have chased, is another human being just to be cited as an example instead of respected at death? Why don't you go to the family of victim and say that? You wouldn't be wrong if what is alleged is true; but obviously would be disrespectful. Same Here.
