Call the police

You obviously saw someone stealing so go tell the police or owner of the goods.

Unless he was stealing from YOU, you have no "legal" action. You should inform the person or business he was stealing from. Offer your information (name, address & phone) in case they choose to file a police report. You may be asked to fill out a simple narrative statement attesting to what you saw. Do this in clear and concise terms, in a step by step manner in the order in which things occrured. If the crime victim wishes to pursue charges and the man is ever caught and brought to court, you may be asked to testify to what you saw. Or you may just be asked to testify to the validity of the statement you wrote.
