Dumb thieves forgot to put petrol in car!
November 22nd, 2011 - 11:20 pm ICT by IANSLondon, Nov 22 (IANS) Two thieves in Britain proved they were too dumb to be doing what they were after they were captured on CCTV pushing their car to a petrol pump as they forgot to tank it up before a robbery.
Rose Devlin, 59, and Denise Egan, 52, stole 400 pounds of alcohol from a supermarket in Manchester city and bundled it into the back of their car. But they realised their quick exit was foiled due to not having petrol, the Daily Mail reported.
They were forced to push the vehicle to the supermarket’s petrol station to fill up before heading away.
All this was captured on CCTV and the robbers were eventually arrested.
