Security guard cleared in theft killing

A security guard accused of killing a shoplifter he was helping to restrain at a busy mall has been cleared of manslaughter.

Sam Bawden, 25, of Neath, South Wales, walked free from court after a trial lasting seven days.

Mr Bawden was one of four security guards who caught and restrained former soldier Aaron Bishop, 23, of Swansea, for stealing a £35 bottle of perfume.
