Serves them right.

Shouldn't they first be marinated?

The robbers may want to stay away from Bennihana as well.

Slice off the robber's hand and stun gun, fry them quickly and give them back to the robber as a treat.

Well, soy sauce and wasabi are the traditional method. Good thing they didn't walk in on a tempura joint - they would have been in for quite a grilling.

The waiters can expect to be charged. The word "ninja" is verboten in England.

I hope that, just for good measure, the sushi guys packed a pound of wasabi in the knife hole.

After killing the thief, the chef piled the slices into a little volcano, poured cooking alcohol inside, and lit it.

... Little right to self defense in the UK ...

According to the article title, this took place in Paris. I think that is in France, not the UK. Of course, France may have the same sort of draconian laws, I don't know.

I was going to make a joke about snippy French waiters, but apparently Japanese-French sushi chefs are even snippier.

France is not part of the UK but part of the European Union shown here.
