Footage showed the masked pair trying to batter through security shutters in the early hours.

It happened around 4am on Monday (2 March) in Dundee, as reported by Need To Know.

During the attempt, each man took it in turns to repeatedly boot the entrance but to no avail.

They were eventually interrupted by someone shouting at them from above the shop.

One of the men then told the person to come down to open the shop because he was “starving”.

After being refused, the pair walked off.
