Hero security guards have been hailed for stopping an alleged shoplifter and locking her in the branch of Iceland.

The woman was suspected of trying to pinch bottles of drink from the budget supermarket.

One of the guards shut the automatic door so she couldn’t try to get out.

It also prevented her irate woman – bizarrely clad in a purple dressing gown and slippers – from getting in.

The angry pal shouted through the glass of the locked down as two colleagues detained her.

She screamed: “Get the f*ck off her man.

“No, no, get off her.

“Get off her man

“Come on.”

She added: “No don’t do that to her man.

“Don’t do that to her.

“Don’t do that to her brother.

“Come on.

“Why you locking the door on her?”

The guards grappled with her inside the Iceland on High Street, Stoke Newington, north London.

The irate friend continued: “Stop f*cking holding her like that.

“She’s a woman.

“Don’t hold her like that.”

The 33-second video filmed by a shocked onlooker then ends.

Locals praised the bravery of the Iceland security and slammed the two women, as reported on Need To Know.

Claire Edberg said: “Good on Iceland and well done security.

“About time action was taken on shoplifters.”

Jules O’Meara fumed: “What is wrong with people today.

“It was only, say 10 to 15 years ago that most were pretty normal.”

Steve Robinson added: “What kind of moron goes out dressed like that?”

Another added: “Usual suspects going out to Iceland in their pyjamas.”

One said: “If you don’t want to be manhandled then don’t be a thief.”

Another echoed this adding: “Maybe she shouldn’t steal and then they wouldn’t grab her.”

One – called Laura – said: “Isn’t Stoke Newington supposed to be super nice and expensive these days?”

The Met Police and Iceland have been approached for comment.
