That’s Not How I Expected This Armed Robbery At A Western Cape BP To End [Videos]

Unfortunately videos of armed robberies in South Africa aren't hard to come by, but who doesn't enjoy seeing criminals in a spot of bother?

It would be wrong to say this robbery has an amusing ending, because a bunch of BP employees were terrorised at gunpoint by armed criminals, but it’s tough not to get a little kick out of how this wraps up.

We don’t know exactly where this took place, although LekkerBlog says the petrol station is in the Western Cape. As you can see from the date stamp in the video, the robbery took place on July 17 at around 1:30AM.

We will start with the criminals wielding their guns:

And then they get their paws on the safe, which proves pretty tricky to extricate:

Great success – now for getting the safe out of there to count your loot.

Oh, oh dear. Looks like they didn’t think this one all the way through:

Hello officers, just look for the car with the buggered up boot and the safe hanging out of it.

We don’t know what the final result of this robbery was, but for now let’s just point and laugh.
