HERO: Jack Osbourne
TELLY daredevil Jack Osbourne was hailed a hero last night after pouncing on a mugger who snatched a woman's handbag.
Brave Jack, 22, CHASED after the thief, WRESTLED him to the ground and PINNED him in an arm lock yesterday afternoon.
After making a citizen's arrest he and fellow shoppers pinned down the crook until cops arrived.
The 14-stone fitness fanatic and martial arts fan told the News of the World: "I could see the girl was in trouble, it just felt like the natural thing to do. I'm glad it turned out okay."
Jack-son of former X Factor judge Sharon and rocker Ozzy-noticed the mugger as he strolled near a coffee shop on Marylebone High Street, central London.
A source said of the host of ITV2's Adrenaline Junkie: "He was amazing. He ran after the mugger like a man possessed-a real hero.
Robber
"It happened so quickly. But Jack spotted it, easily beat him in the race over 20 metres and pushed him to the ground. Whatever technique he used meant the robber couldn't escape.
"The girl was very grateful, but Jack was very modest."
A police spokesman confirmed his feat last night. Jack once trained at a US police academy on Armed And Famous.

It's about time the rich spoiled little cry baby did something for society besides pop pills and bitch about his pampered life his Daddy gave him.
Why do we care when someone like this little brat does something semi-heroic when there are people doing it every day and no one reports it.
Thats probably why the public in generel takes the "I don't get involved" attitude.
Screw Jack Osbourne

GREAT JOB JACK. REFRESHING TO SEE SOMEBODY ACTUALLY GETTING INVOLVED TO HELP SOMEONE IN NEED, INSTEAD OF JUST STANDING THERE LKE A BUNCH OF DOPEY PEOPLE. WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IT OR NOT, YOU ARE A HERO. NOT MANY PEOPLE AROUND LIKE YOU ANYMORE. AT LEAST SOMEBODY CARED ENOUGH TO GET INVOLVED. AGAIN GREAT JOB.

Very well done! That's how every mugger should be treated; thrown to the ground, pinned down and handed over to the police. Excellent work.
Greetings from the Netherlands.
