Luis Vega said vandals have targeted his store in the past. So when he noticed a man he thought was attempting to draw graffiti on Thursday, he attempted to make a citizen’s arrest.
Vega injured the man during the confrontation. In a video that Vega shot, the unknown man is seen bloodied and apologizing.
