Stories of Chinese people catching thieves in Europe have become a trending topic online.

Earlier this month, a Chinese tourist in Barcelona has gone viral after he used martial arts to heroically stop a suspected thief who tried to steal his camera.

Footage from the streets of Barcelona, shows the suspected thief wailing and gasping for air as the tourist grappled him, locking him in a chokehold.

More recently, another suspected thief got a dose of instant karma after trying to steal a mobile phone out of the hands of a Chinese student on the streets of lawless London.

What the suspected thief doesn't realize is he's picked on the wrong person.

The alleged victim chases after the man, into the Tube station, down the escalator and onto the platform, before holding him in a vice-like grip and finally retrieving the phone.

中國游客在歐洲勇擒小偷的事跡在網上成為熱門話題。

本月早些時候，一名中國游客在巴塞羅那街頭英勇地用武術制服了一名試圖偷走他相機的嫌疑人，這一事件迅速走紅。

視頻片段顯示，這名嫌疑人一邊哀號一邊喘著粗氣，在扭打之中，游客緊緊地將他控制住，一招“鎖喉”使其無法動彈。

最近，在治安混亂的倫敦街頭，一名涉嫌盜竊的男子試圖從一位中國學生手中搶走手機，隨后立刻嘗到了現世報的苦果。

這名嫌疑人顯然惹錯了人。

受害者緊追不舍，沖進地鐵站，順著自動扶梯一路追到站臺，像“虎鉗”一般緊緊抓住男子，最終奪回了手機。
