Suspected Thief Made To Lift Heavy Weight As Punishment (Video)

A suspected thief got more than what he bargained for after he was apprehended in Sierra Leone .

He was made to choose between going to jail and lifting a heavy weight clearly beyond his power.

A video making the rounds on social media captured the moment a thief was given a get-out-of-jail card in exchange for his display of strength.

The young man, looking famished got cheered up by a crowd who insisted that he lift the locally made weight or be handed to the police.

The man struggled multiple times, clearly unable to achieve his goal until he did eventually after almost falling to his knees.
