A Versace store somewhere in America is safer today thanks to the vigilant actions of 49ers offensive lineman Jonathan Martin. 

Martin, who apparently fights crime during the offseason, tweeted out this nugget on Thursday. 

Well done Jonathan Martin. We should all be so vigilant. 

Martin was at the Beverly Center in Los Angeles when he noticed two perpetrators stealing purses from the Versace store. 

Martin then chased one of the suspects down and tackled him. The 49ers lineman told Yahoo's Shutdown Corner blog that he punched the guy "five to eight times."

The other shoplifter got away. 

"I didn't even think," Martin said on Thursday night. "I just reacted. It wasn't till later when [my friend] said, 'He could have had a gun.' I didn't even think about it. I just wanted to help."

Now, you'd think that people would be proud of Martin for being a civic hero and saving the Versace store from impending doom, but that's not the case. 

Some people on Twitter decided to make a joke about bullying, you know, because Martin was bullied in Miami. 

Then there were a few other people who used Martin's tweet to make fun of his blocking skills. 

As for me, if Jonathan Martin did in fact stop a robbery in progress, then I commend him with all the commending you can commend someone with.
