Note to self: Don't mess with a bus driver with a bat!

Earlier this month, a guy in Chile tried to board a bus and steal a woman's purse. With a supposed smile on his face, the guy's attempt at robbery failed. He then tried to exit the bus, but was stopped by the bus driver's bat!

Watch as the bus driver traps the thief’s hand in the door to the bus, then proceeds to beat him with a bat—making the man cry like a child.

The beating goes on for about a minute until the bus driver finally pulls over and is greeted by the police. The thief is then arrested.

That's a quick thinking bus driver! Props for keeping his passengers safe!
