Two thieves were sneaking through a convenience store, quietly stuffing their bags with stolen goods, when suddenly, bang! They heard a loud gunshot. They peeked around the corner and saw another robber holding the shopkeeper at gunpoint. He rushed back to his partner and whispered, >> to get out of here. Now. >> But the other thief shook his head. >> We can't. If [music] they check the security cameras, they'll see us, too. >> So, they quickly came up with a plan.
One thief grabbed his skateboard and threw it across the floor, creating a loud distraction. As the robber turned around, the other thief sneaked up behind him and shoved him straight to the ground. Then the other thief snatched up the robber's gun and quickly threw it over to the store owner. The owner caught it, aimed, and instantly pinned the robber down until the police showed up. >> [music]
