Really depends, some people are assholes some people are in need some people are in need and also are assholes. You can't bin everyone into one group. I am pretty sure reporting theft would be part of one's job, whether justified or not. Make your judgement and decide whether that person seems like really in need and worth risking your job. If so go for it, I am all in for being a decent human being to non assholes. But if someone regulary shoplifts in a store because you don't report I would take it to mean that they don't really care whether if you lose your job or not.
if someone "is an asshole" in that way, then by definition they aren't doing well
