I agree with the first sentence and disagree with the second. If the thief did actually appear to be pointing a weapon in the guy's direction as he chased after the car, then there is nothing proven about his lack of responsibility, and there is currently no conclusive proof to the contrary.
He wouldn't have been in what appeared to be a kill or be killed situation if he had let the cops handle it.
Why ring the cops to report the crime in the first place if you intend on arming yourself and chasing the guy down on your own? Surely that's putting yourself, the thief, and innocent civilians in unnecessary danger, which is definitely irresponsible.
