CCTV catches criminal accidentally smacking partner’s face with a brick during an attempted robbery

The Shanghai Public Security Bureau has released a somewhat hilarious footage of an attempted break-in by two criminals that resulted in one of them getting smashed in the face with a brick.

In the now viral video on Facebook originally distributed by the New York Post, the 44-second material sourced from a CCTV camera shows a miscalculated attempt at breaking a window, resulting in one of them getting a direct hit and passing out from the flying brick thrown by the other.

OUCH.

The police have yet to identify the amateur burglars in the video. The extent of the injury has not also been determined, although the footage shows the victim still passed out and being dragged away by his partner. /VT
