Not all heroes wear capes, a lot of the time they're wearing hi-vis, as was the case at Manukau Westfield over the weekend.

In a video sent through to us by an anonymous Westfield employee, security footage shows a heroic delivery man putting a nice hit on a fleeing shoplifter before police swarm the offender.

The unnamed delivery man can be seen hearing a commotion behind him before turning around, sizing up the shoplifter, bracing himself for impact, and following through with technique SBW would be proud of.

If anyone knows who this legend of a delivery man is, please let us know!
