A pair of love-struck teenage criminals were arrested because they stopped to have a kiss in front of CCTV cameras.
The romantic partners in crime were being hunted after stealing Sh. 22,000 from a till at a store in China's Sichuan province.
They decided to have a kiss to celebrate, but it proved their undoing.
Victim of the crime, store owner Gong Chen, said: "They were amateurs because apart from the cash, they did not take anything of value.”
"There were cameras and laptop computers and smart phones and they left it all behind because they were so busy kissing.
"That kiss was their undoing.
"They did it as if they were celebrating but it wasn't for long."
The pair, 19-year-old Lei Yu and his girlfriend 18-year-old Xiang Ch'iu, were arrested after cops analysed the footage of them kissing.
