Firefighters and police officers turned up at the store in Bogotá, Colombia and arrested the suspects, as reported on Need To Know.
Footage taken at the scene shows how they sprayed water from a high-pressure fire hose into the building to wash the crooks out.
The images also show several officers dragging one man out and cuffing his hands behind his back.
He looks worse for wear as he picks himself up and staggers around with a booze-soaked grin on his face.
Another clip displays how his alleged accomplice was led into the back of a police van.
After the footage was posted to social media, netizens had fun in the comment section.
Alex wrote: “Hopefully, they’ve learnt their lesson: you don’t drink on the job.”
Wilson joked: “Those cops look like they were trained by Mr Bean.”
And Marc remarked: “Only in Colombia.”
