Medal for citizen's arrest?

Just read this shocking story, and I think if someone has made a citizen's arrest, which ends with the arrested suspect being found guilty of a crime, then there should be some sort of public recognition, and thanks.

It's all too easy to do nothing when we see people up to no good, though hopefully, like these two lads, I think most members of the public would rush to the aid of a child if needed.

I applaud these two men, for catching this suspect, and helping to bring him to justice, and I hope the little girl manages to get over the terrifying ordeal, helped by the knowledge that her attacker is behind bars...hopefully.

Tim Bolchover and Matthew Clegg deserve a medal for their actions, in my opinion.
