Detroit woman tracks down stolen Mercedes, suspect dragged from barbershop by dreds
DETROIT (FOX 2) - A Detroit woman who had her Mercedes Benz stolen refused to sit at home feeling sorry for herself. Instead, she followed it all across Detroit until she decided to take matters into her own hands.

Bianca Chambers said for two days, she tracked her car throughout the city until Wednesday when the man parked her car and went to get his hair done. That's when she confronted the thief.

"At that point, I was like...I’m not letting this man walk again," she said.

She walked into a barbershop at Greenfield and Grand River and was face-to-face with the guy she says stole her new Benz and asked him point-blank - is that his Benz? When he denied it, she took him down.

"He’s at 7 Days West, getting his dreds twisted," she said in a Facebook live while watching her car.

Customers then stepped in to make a citizen's arrest while Bianca, sick of seeing him drive off in her car, slashed her own tires! Then she called the police.

#1 Hmmmm... if Detroit was at its nadir in the '80s, then something like 35-40 years (two generations?) for people to start valuing the rule of law?

They've also elected a sheriff who values self-defense -- now if they can take the schools back from the "professional educators", they may start rebuilding the city.

#2 There are three types of being "taken into custody". By the police, by citizens, by the victim.

#4 Drop dead KS. A thief is a thief. It seems you identify with the thief.
