People passing by pounced on the opportunity to steal bottles of the soft drink, which were sprawled across the road.

In the video, dozens of locals can be seen rushing around and scooping up as many as they can.

One man even carries a large sack, which he fills to the brim.

According to local press, the driver asked people for help but was ignored.

Authorities arrived at the scene to try and prevent people from stealing the goods, but they were too late, as reported by Need To Know.
