(Before clicking the link): the victim is going to be a POC or vulnerable isn’t he.

(After clicking): sigh. Mob mentality and dehumanisation. Please treat other human beings with care and respect.

Could he now sue the people that beat him (or even Sainsbury’s)?

Taking items, belongings to a different person is wrong.

Causing physical harm to a person is even far more wrong.

Regardless of laws i believe these those to be true in civilized society

But to add to that, to who exactly do the items on display in a store belong? (I asked this question to ai to make following list)

1. The items belong to the store owner or corporation that owns the store, having been legally purchased for resale.

2. The items belong to the workers who produce them, as their labor creates the value of these items.

3. The items belong to the community or society as a whole, ensuring collective access and distribution.

4. The items belong to those who use them, with property being legitimate only when actively utilized.

5. The items are part of the common resources that should be freely accessible to all individuals, promoting mutual aid and cooperation.

Noteworthy is that the items never belong to the store employee from any perspective but it could belong to the thieves according to 3, 4 and 5, If the thief happens to work at the factory they can also fall under 2.
