Then once they have the theft on video, they approach the perps on the floor?

SIA
CCTV can't always catch the perps. In this case he was noticed, but apparently not by the person he was surveiling until he was pointed out by the poster. A loss prevention agent/person can't approach/stop/apprehend an alleged shoplifter until they have exited with out paying.
