Two dog thieves in China were tied up, beaten by the public and then left for 11 hours with dead dogs tied around them.

In an extreme case of vigilante justice the two men, caught stealing dogs from a Chinese village, were subjected to a brutal day-long beating.

The police were sent to rescue the thieves so actual justice could be served but the villagers began turning on officers and started to attack them with metal bars and smashed the patrol car.
The shocking incident started at around 7am in Shaping village in China when the thieves were caught red-handed with the dead animals they had killed for meat - a growing problem in China.

The mob soon gathered and took justice into their own hands before the police arrived in an attempt to show that mob justice is not acceptable.
When officers were about to take the two suspects back to the station, the villagers demanded around £100,000 compensation to release them.

Hours later, the mob started attacking the police and some villagers even lay under the police car so the dog thieves couldn't be taken away.

It wasn't until 6pm, some 11 hours later, that the situation was resolved when the Public Security Bureau arrived to calm everything down.

Officials say the police went about their work as they should have during the violence and some villagers will be arrested for obstructing police work and illegal imprisonment. The two dog thieves remain in police custody and are being investigated.
