Thirty minutes later they pounce on a thief trying to flee the mall after stealing a mobile phone from a woman's backpack, only to be threatened by three of the thief's knife-wielding partners in crime.

The six safeguard members attack the assailants and wrestle the knives from their hands.

A band of vigilantes, who organized themselves over the internet, spend their time after a day at the office by trying to prevent thieves in Guangzhou.

Pickpocketing is of course, present.  But there apparently used to be a big gangster scene years ago.  I heard one story about a monk getting beat up by a gangster for some reason.  A few days later, the monk came back with something like 50 monk friends and put the gangster in the hospital.

At some point, the government hired or brought in even scarier policemen and gave them a pretty free rein.  So things are safer now.  When we opened the bar, a lot of locals were still rather afraid to go into the old town at night.

But now, the old town is full of kitsch shops opened by  entrepreneurs from Dali.  So it's well lit at night, and a lot more people are seen wandering around.
