Burglar knocks down partner by mistake
Remember the incompetent criminals Harry and Marv who endured immense physical harm while being outsmarted by 8-year-old Kevin McCallister in the 90’s hit movie ‘Home Alone’? Similar scenes played out in Shanghai, China when a robbery attempt went kaput thanks to the clumsiness of a burglar, reports the NDTV.
Video going viral on Chinese social media captured the premature end to a robbery when one of the burglars ended up injuring his own partner. Uploaded on Weibo by Shanghai Police, the video shows two masked, hooded men arriving at the scene and trying to shatter presumably a glass door with bricks. While the first man manages to take an aim, his partner unfortunately is way off the mark. The man ends up hitting his accomplice in the face, knocking him to the ground. Realising his mistake, he reaches for his partner, who appears unconscious, and drags him out of sight.
On Weibo, Shanghai Police mocked the failed burglars and said, ‘If thieves are at this level, the police will not have to work overtime.’
