最近一则“男子追小偷致其摔倒身亡被起诉”的新闻引起了公众的注意，你怎么看？
男子追小偷致其摔倒身亡A man in Zhangzhou, Fujian province is facing prosecution after a thief he chased dropped dead on the street. The case has elicited widespread public debate over whether or not prosecution would discourage people from trying to prevent similar crimes in the future.
福建漳州一名男子即将被起诉，原因是因为他在追赶一名小偷时，后者不幸摔倒死亡。这起案件引起了公众广泛的讨论，他们关心对该名男子的起诉是否会导致人们将来在面对类似案件的时候不再挺身而出。
The man, surnamed Huang, discovered a thief in his home around 12 a.m. one rainy night in March. Huang chased the thief onto the street and grappled with the thief until the thief slipped and fell down. The fall caused brain damage, which eventually led to the death, Xiamen Daily reported.
该名男子姓黄，今年3月一个雨夜，大约凌晨12点的时候他在自己家里发现了一个小偷。黄某追赶小偷到了街上，和小偷扭打直到后来小偷跌倒摔在了地上。据《厦门日报》报道，跌倒导致大脑受伤，最终导致小偷死亡。
Prosecutors argue that Huang should be punished for negligent homicide, as he should have realized that chasing after someone on a rainy night could lead to injuries. Local police have appealed to prosecutors to arrest Huang, while the Zhangpu County People's Procuratorate turned down the appeal for lack of evidence, according to the Xinhua News Agency.
检察院认为黄某应该因过失杀人而受到惩罚，因为他应当意识到在雨夜追赶某人有可能导致对方受伤。据新华社报道，当地警方向检察院要求批捕黄某，但是漳浦县人民检察院以证据不足为由拒绝了这一请求。
The case quickly triggered a public outcry as many expressed their opposition to a punishment for Huang. Many argued that any sort of sentence for Huang would set a precedent and keep well-meaning citizens from intervening to prevent similar future crimes.
这起案件迅速引起了公众的强烈抗议，许多人都表示反对处罚黄某。许多人都认为对黄某的任何判决都会建立一个先例，使得善意的公民以后不会再干涉类似的案件。
