Police should seek him out and hire him, scholarship, pay for his academy training. Those are the kind of officers you want on the force.
Academy is free.
He would be a great cop. 😊
@@TOMVUTHEPIMP HPD academy is actually paid, it ain't much but the attendees are compensated for the entire time they're in.
@@josimon6229 All police academies are paid. I think he just meant you don't have to pay to go.
He can actually run unlike alot of Cops
Much respect to this young man for “choosing” to make a difference. Thank you young man. You are an inspiration.
Good guy,you stay safe and well,God bless you
Yes let's inspire others civilians to put themselves in dangerous situations instead of letting the proper authorities handle it
Bootlicker is what he is
@@tj5579 what do you care? its his life he was willing to risk. and he caught the thug too. does that upset you?
@@JohnDoe-qf1ur Just because it worked out doesn't mean it's okay what he did. Yes let's have people seeing what this guy did as a good idea and then have them try to do it too instead of letting the proper authorities handle it...real smart
This guy deserves a medal!! It is so refreshing seeing this hero take down the bad guy. I really thought the day of real men where over, but now I have a bit of hope. Thank you Devin, I thank you, and my family thanks you. You should be very proud of yourself You are a true hero!!
Devon is one special young man. Not only from risking his life trying to do the right thing in assisting law enforcement, but not holding a grudge against the perpetrator and hoping he learns a lesson. We need more Devon’s in the world!
The report says he was in track and field. I've also seen videos of guys who did martial arts and and fighters who intervened and saved people.
I think if we encouraged more kids to be active, find a sport they like and invest in it, we would increase the ability to have good samaritans. I know it also depends on the character, but usually sports build character as you need dedication and self discipline to excel in it.
One of the problems of this generation is video games which makes them quite sedentary.
agreed!!!
Finally. Someone who has sense is in the news !!!! He's a hero
Hero? You ever played flag football and chased after someone? Does that make you a hero?
@@andrewredding407 I played flag football all the time. I always went for the flag on a guy I knew. I just don't remember thinking "Does this guy I don't know going to pull a gun or knife on me when I put my hands on him?" Smh🙄
@@andrewredding407 I don't see the correlation.
@@alexisguerrero3105 Because there is none. Andrew is obviously a moron, as Jess has already shown.
@@NT-fo3me For sure but I want to see what he has to say to back up his statement.
Ran up on him like he was walking. Society needs more people like him. 👍
the dallas cowboys need more people like him.
I know! Lol. It was like the guy he was chasing was moving in slow motion.
Track athlete. Even the news anchor commented on how fast he was lol
For real 💀the dude was running looking back and this man just walks up to him “hey buddy where you going”
He deserves a lot of credit but by the time he entered the chase the suspect was tired and had lost his shoes
It amazes me that so many times police end up chasing down a suspect on foot with all the weight of their gear slowing them down. My congratulations on the citizen who assisted them. Good job man, especially considering the risks you may have been taking.
True, they do carry a large amount of gear. And a vest is not lightweight. However, on that note, watch any number of videos of a police action and you will see at least one officer who is 50+ pounds overweight. That is completely unacceptable. I see this all the time with the Washington DC police force. They have way too many overweight officers on the force. They have almost 4000 officers to cover an area of just over 9 square miles. And kudos to the guy who made the decision to help the officer.
It's not the gear slowing them down it's the inclusive hiring rules instead of merit.
AND most police officers, nowadays, are MUCH YOUNGER than
the teenage suspects!
There's NO WAY they're going to catch him.
@@BORN-to-Run So worked up you picked the wrong word.
Devon is a hero. I worked 27 years in private security and would be happy to work with this gentleman.
DEVON only catches wht people, lets see him catch a blk dude.
The police department should hire the security guard.
He did a great job capturing the suspect and he seems very compassionate.
Sounds like he'd make a perfect cop. No chance he'll get hired. Probably too smart as well.
And still concerned himself with the suspect's future! Can't be a better officer than that
They probably ask him if he wanted to work there, because I bet he can out run anyone on the force, dude said he used to run track.
Yeah, but when he puts the badge on, you'll be on the criminals side
I definitely agree he should definitely be one
What let me know this is a really stand up guy wasn’t him catching him but the fact he encourages him to learn from his mistakes and wishing him well.
Aren't enough comments like yours. Thank you.
There are still a lot of good people in the world God bless this man
Seriously ... THANK YOU guy!!! Outstanding courage ... and fortitude to take such a stand. Glad you're ok. Great Job!!!
So proud of that 26 year old man. Awesome job.
This guy deserves an award…he took upon himself to help out when everyone else just watched.
Agree!
Well, the police themselves tell ordinary citizens not to get involved in their chases.
and he was dumb to do so why
the suspect could have been armed and killed him
the cops could mistake him for the suspect and shoot him
the suspect could sue him because he is not a cop with qualified immunity
and finally we pay the cops to do that not him so just let the cops do their job
Heroes act first count cost later. He is a MAN'S MAN. The world is better off when ever they show up!
@@beadnut because suspects who are running from cops have reasons why they are running they can do anything to escape if they have to kill they will do it
Thats why cops dont allow civilians to step in meanwhile cops are armed and have bulletproof vests
One of the best things I have seen lately. The man who acted showed so much character I wanted to give him a hug! I will make sure my family watches this so we can talk about his good example.
Excellent. Well done. There are good people still in this world. Thank you.
Wow, that closing speed was impressive.
Love this gentleman, he helped out and then gave the guy good advice! His mom should be very proud of him! May GOD continue to bless you! Stay safe!
The amaud Arbery trial taught me not to chase suspects. Could result in a life prison sentence. Best off letting the police take care of that business.
buddy's gonna end up dead trying to be a hero
his mother, why you assume that! his parents would be proud
WOW, I am so impressed by this man. What a guy! He would be a great officer. Very inspirational!!
What a hero! Good for him.
Glad he didn’t run into a gun/knife and was able apprehend him safely ❤️
Dangerous job, be careful chasing criminals.
You are right, but how good that it turned out well this time. Just watch that guy run!!! Awesome!
@@scallaghan2118 It was assinine and ridiculous.
@@ellencarter2668 I think that he was tanked from the run, he had very little statima left.
Criminals need to be careful. More and more if us citizens are not putting up with their bull$hit. Help the cops. Take down the criminal scum. All these people saying you shouldn’t get involved are cowards themselves, and berate the heros in order to justify their own cowardice.
Hes a security guard
This man is what America needs more of. What we USED to have before everyone became a ‘victim’. He looks to me to be a superb candidate for a career on the police force. He obviously has the instincts, the moral fiber and the compassion. May he be blessed in his life, no matter the path he chooses. Thank you Devin, for giving America hope. ❤️
God BLESS YOU YOUNG MAN we need more People like you SO this Country can be Safe
People like this Good Samaritan should be recruited. Protecting and serving the community should be above a paycheck.
Such a great idea
I totally agree! I sure he would appreciate an officers position, as oppose to working security
Yea! have a nice day protecting the property.
People gotta eat, you know.
This dude ran like a track star! Just his posture while running, and it wasn't like a "lazy run".
He ran like he used to do track years ago.
That was wonderful to watch. His response to the perpetrator was spot on. May God continue to bless, prosper, and keep this man safe.
🙏🏽
What if the man running did a crime to pay for his children's hospital operation that he couldn't afford? Is he a hero for that? Don't jump to conclusions.
Better job than most cops. Lol .... the police force is a joke. And this guy proves it. WE THE PEOPLE
Sure was ‘a hero moment’ like he said . We called sometimes and know we can do it. It’s therefore our moment. So cool. And kind
Nicely done by this young man. All the best to you!!!
This is “policing your community” in action. Kudos to this man, we need more of this.
Most criminals will be armed so you better know what you're doing.
@@ConsidertheCrows That's why you carry.
👍🏿😀
Amen! See something say or do something.
@Breakfast Television Everyone have their own moral code. What you won't do, someone else will
Hope this guy gets a reward. Well done fella
Amazing this guy did this and was able to catch up to the criminal!!! You sir have earned my respect!!! 👍
Thank You Sir for being able to catch him. Being on the Track Team really helped also.😊
God bless you Devin, you made a difference and probably prevented a much worse scenario. Im thankful you are safe as well. You prove that in desperate moments a good man will rise up and do what is right.
Lmfaooo guy was just running yeah he prevented such a catastrophic scenario
Much worse how? Lol logic, wya
@@cinnamonsinner4619 typically they run away and attempt to steal another car then another dangerous chase follows, you must be new. Or he could even be armed you never know
Wow, bunch of haters in this thread. The guy is a hero, and I am happy he's around!
@@gokushkameha-ha-ha9344 Carjacking is a common thing when someone is fleeing the cops
I was just thinking that this man can run. He's really fast. Thank You sir for your service and quick response. You might have just saved this guy's life from guns being pointed at him. Who knows what could have happened.
I agree his actions were Heroic 👍💯
When I saw him running twice as fast as the _suspect_ , I immediately thought he's a track star!
Sorry Carlson, suspect being white wont be shot.hahaha
@@noguruespanol Criminals that run, go to jail. Criminals that run and threaten the police, get shot. Skin color has nothing to do with it. All Lives Matter. No special cookie her, Sorry.
Yeah they said he was a track star in high school.
Rare individual, great skill set and morals.
Good man we need more people like him give him a job
LOVE THIS PERSON!!! GOD BLESS YOU! NICE TO HAVE *TRACK ATHELETE* AROUND!
I'd like to walk without tripping! 😆😆😆
He was fast AF...
It's selfish
@@Nick-gh5bi LOL what are you talking about? Selfish? You don’t make sense man
@@Leeohlin89 😂
That guy can run, what a great job he did. We need more people like this.
@RussiantoIndia lets face it homer is one of the sexiest men alive so i see what the cops are going for
@@watamalonez6802 😂
Oh please 🙄
@@watamalonez6802 😂😂😂
I wouldn't recommend any good samaritans chasing after criminals like this he's lucky the suspect wasn't strapped
I love the fact that this man was able to stop him. Good heart people are what we need. Good job, and you are a hero ❤️
Nice job young man. We need more young men like this in the world
Glad the samaratan didn't get hurt or killed by the suspect and that it all ended good. God bless his bravery and doing a good deed. Hope they reward this young man 🙏🙏💯💯
Shout out to that citizen. Good job and I wish you all the best. We need more men like you in today's world.
Good job bro 👍
@N why? Very true. These are the folks who are incapable of thinking for themselves. The same misfits who are offended by an animated cartoon skunk...
Than more men become victims for stepping in.
@N why? Shut up MAGA loser
Hallelujah this young man showed just what type of moral character we need so badly in America.
Well Done Sir.
Absolutely thank you 🙏
For helping law enforcement
Being a good man
Can Devon be hired as a Law Enforcement? His instincts kicked in and boom he became a hero immediately!
We need him as a citizen...He is the best!
They wouldn't hire him. He didn't shoot the suspect in the back
@@nathanmathews2148 😂😂
Mad props to you Devin being there made a world of difference.
A possibly gave the suspect time to think about his actions and make life changing choices.
Thank you sir for helping the police, God bless you. Take care
And he hugged him and said, Its over buddy lol. GIVE THAT MAN A BADGE!!
Thank you for renewing my hope for humanity this morning!!
Proud of my brother good job stopping a criminal
This turned out great! Devin helped the police officers capture a thief and he encouraged him in the end to do better in his life.
Why are police no longer expected to be able to run like this guy.
I would love to hug this heros neck and tell him just how very proud of him we are. Love Texas !
People usually hug the torso, what you want to do is strangle the guy by hugging his neck lol
I hope this wonderful man is given a very generous reward!!
definition of a good citizen well done sir
Did the city reward this young man... not only he was a good samaritan, but listen to what he said at the end...tells you how good of a man he's gonna grow up to be
This is what we need. Citizens getting involved, when possible to assist our officers.
you go ahead
@@stuart6186 And you just stay at home, and continue to be part of the problem.
@@damiantoth8577 pay me to be a sheriff and I will chase the perp. Otherwise I pay for someone else to.
I would get involved if I think it's safe and person doesn't have a weapon. I ain't trying to get killed neither 😂😂
@@stuart6186 So continue to be part of the problem then.
The dude can run!! 🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️
This dude personally, action, and advice it what we need in this world.
This makes me so happy. 😊 Great job sir for capturing him!
This is how it’s done!
Thank you so much for allowing your human instinct take over!
I love it!!
We need more people like this gentleman. He’s such a good person. Even giving words of advice after a police chase. Being apart of track and field paid off at that moment. Way to go man !!
In fact, it is a very dangerous thing to do. You do not know if he was armed.
No we don't,let the cops do there jobs and stop these criminals it's what they sign up for, civilians shouldn't be risking their lives.
Nah.. in fact we don't need people like him. Because he risked eventually even his life.. for what tho? I would never risk my health for anyone who just runs away... Makes no sense to me tbh.
Would be different if he's about to harm someone.. but he was just running.
@@trenton227 I would I would risk my life to help anyone in danger too. Then again I armed myself
@@Savage_Gamer777 it doesn't matter if you do or don't arm yourself,random things happen all the time don't going dying over some argument that couldn't been avoided by minding your own business.
Great job. Nobody hurt and good samaritan would make a fine security guard for any neighborhood.
Thank you Devon. God bless you. You are really an example for my kids and for all the kids in this world🥰🥰🥰
Devin is a hero for not only chasing the suspect down and holding him but he also left a posative message for the guy to change his life around that is a man with true heart!
It is true! He is awesome 👌
The Flash, returns!
He caught up to that dude like he was standing STILL! Wow!
This mans sprint form was smooth like a gazelle...
And he still wished him the best in turning his life around.
he probably saved someones life.
Good man! Thanks for helping the police and the citizens! God bless him!
The police department should hire this hero guy to be a police officer. He ran so fast.
That guy can run!
Thank
Courageous. This guy put himself potentially in harm's way for others. He stood up for what's right. Thank you sir. Good on you.
I wouldn't have done it I'm not a cop why should I there was a guy in Little Rock a couple years ago the police was trying to arrest somebody and was struggling in the police looked at the guy said hey man get over here and help me out and the guy said man f*** that s*** that's your job so guess what the guy was arrested for not assisting the police well when the guy was in court he said number one I'm not a cop I'm not trained second ball I'm a convicted felon he's I live in a very bad neighborhood if I had to help that copped out that would have been considered snitching he's in my life is much more important well it didn't matter the judge found him guilty and sent him 30 days in jail he wouldn't f***** up about it at least his reputation was maintained because the police gave him an order and when the police give you an order that's obstruction so it was a mystery to really but he was right as a felon he is not obligated to assist the police that's considered snitching but guess what happened when he got to jail the jail told him I can't believe the judge is sentencing misdemeanors all day long to my jail I'm crowded enough as it is, he told that dude grab your ID and stuff off my desk and get the f*** out of my jail? Now after jayla he can do that release the misdemeanors not the serious felonies my cousin told me man that is the first time I ever heard about somebody being kicked out of jail I said hey man the world is stranger than you think LOL apparently the judge was on a roll sentencing nothing but misdemeanor to jail all day long did she jayla who ran to jail didn't like that s*** because he was crowded plus he was taking in detainees for another county so all those f****** misdemeanors they had to go get the f*** out of my jail blah blah blah
@REPUBBLICA ITALIANA easy for those who weren't the victim to say. Them and cowards.
A+++
I disagree, i don't know if the man running is innocent, some people get framed or some people do crimes because they can't afford to pay for their child's cancer treatment.
There was a man who robbed a store so he could pay for his daughter's operation, but the police still arrested him. And sent him to jail, police ain't getting my help either, especially with the history that they have, tainted badge and history of violence and racism.
Anyone who becomes a cop is a sellout, supporting and wearing that corrupt organisation on their chest.
To: get in there Lewis. Your comment about the badge along with your spelling tell me all I need to know.
Situational awareness, great foot pursuit, no unnecessary brutality in the capture, a good attitude and concern for the suspect as a person! Devin displays most of the attributes of a good policeman. I don't know what Devin's career aspirations are, but I think the department would do well to give him a job interview. I think it is great that Devin got involved, but good Samaritans do need to keep in mind that this isn't the movies. Just because you are in the right and trying to do the right thing, doesn't mean you won't get you a** handed to you when you catch the suspect. There is a high potential for harm, or a law suit, in doing what Devin did. Which makes his actions that much more admirable.
Nice bloke. Great citizen. The states need more of this.
Dang he's fast.
Thank
And it didn’t seem like he was running at top speed either! He hadn’t even stretched his legs out all the way. 😯. I’m glad he didn’t get hurt!
Dude lost his shoes and his dignity in a single moment.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
No dignity lost here..you must've lost your mind
And that’s not all he lost.
😂😂😂😂😂
He's gonna be losing something to big Bubba in the slammer too...
What a good young man
What an awesome guy…and a track star no less. I love stories like this.
This guy is a brave individual! His words of encouragement were amazing! Hats off to you kind sir!
Awesome we need more Good Samaritans like this in the world
Wow! The chase guy was like a cheetah with 6 speeds. Great job!
This is literally the dumbest thing you can do if you are unarmed.
Cops should give him a days pay for doing their job.
Words of wisdom from this young man, our very good hearted Samaritan. Very admirable indeed! ☺️
🥲
Dumb as fk .what if the suspect had a gun?
That's great!..There are still many good Samaritan's out there..God bless him..
Devin your awesome man. You are such a great dude, I wish you well.
GIVE the Hero Citizen a prize for going above and beyond!!!!!! We need too know who this good person and help him as much as possible. We need more people like him.
What a great guy I definitely commend him for doing the right thing
Great Samaritan and he's a brother. Proud of you.
I love it. Thanks for helping as a citizen against crime.
Look at the form!!
The stride, the high knees and the active elbows.
Excellent job, Citizen!!! ♥️🏃🏻♂️🇺🇸
Finally a feel good story with a great ending.
I wish it ended bad for him because he had no business doing that. Leave the guy alone and let the law handle it. Do you go to McDonald’s and go make a Big Mac and hand it to a customer and call yourself a hero? No you don’t. It’s not your job right? Well ok.
@@andrewredding407 The mental gymnastics you had pull to make that comparison is impressive.

Great job Devon ", yes on the local police department needs you". God bless ur soul and family. Thank u from Fla, USaA
Thank you sir!!!! You truly make a real difference in this world!!!!!!!
Amazing! This man is a hero! good people are still out there and we greatly appreciate you!
Add this man to the payroll as an officer.
WOW!!! That guard hero RAN LIKE THE WIND !!
Fantastic to see such quick action.
Were a team, us and the police, we should all work together to make this world a better place.
I truly hope this Good Samaritan were praised and acknowledged for what he had done.
He probably saved the suspects life.
Good point but it was still stupid. Devin put his own life in danger. Just kind your business and go home.
