Fighting mob justice

In our community, the rate of mob justice acts were going high this had even costed some of people's lives who were even innocent, but one day villagers suspected an innocent boy stealing a goat, they had started crashing him while as he was saying that "I am innocent" the chairman of the village tried to stop them but he couldn't do so, he then called the police which helped to save the boy and even arrested those who engaged in the practice.  This tought villagers a lesson hence stopping mob justice.
