Rose Devlin, 59, and Denise Egan, 52, stole 400 pounds of alcohol from a supermarket in Manchester city and bundled it into the back of their car. But they realised their quick exit was foiled due to not having petrol, the Daily Mail reported.

They were forced to push the vehicle to the supermarket's petrol station to fill up before heading away.

All this was captured on CCTV and the robbers were eventually arrested.
