A pair of shoplifters were photographed wearing watermelons on their head while robbing a convenience store in Virginia, US. The bizarre pics were shared on Facebook by Louisa Police Department on Saturday, where they have gone viral and left many amused.
According to police, the two shoplifters were filmed arriving at a Sheetz store in a black Toyota truck wearing hollowed out watermelons with eye holes. Their unique disguise in the age of face mask initially amused onlookers, and the two even posed for a photograph at a different store before they proceeded to "commit a larceny."
While their disguise may have captured eyeballs, it was ultimately unsuccessful. On Sunday, the police shared an update saying an arrest has been made in the case. Take a look at their viral post below:
