He should be punished, of course... with taking into account that he only used pepper spray and not a real weapon, but still that's plain robbery. The fact that he did it in an unusual and somewhat funny way doesn't excuse him from guilt.
What happened here where I live a few days ago - a couple of drunken men entered a bus that was waiting on its starting station, with passengers already in it, and started driving it… When they were pulled over by the police, the passengers told that they didn’t even notice anything unusual was happening, because the ride was as usual and they made stops at each bus station! Still, that doesn’t excuse the perpetrators from responsibility.
