A video showing shocking moment when brazen looters took away thousands of pounds of alcohol from Tesco Express in Cricklewood, London, has gone viral on social media.
A group of four thieves brazenly stole huge amounts of alcohol from a Tesco Express in Cricklewood. The video shows four of them, dressed in black coats, filling plastic bags until they were nearly bursting with bottles of wine and other alcohol.
The group seem completely undeterred despite being filmed as they continue to stock up on alcohol bottles. In the video, two men can be seen crouched at the front, filling their bags as two others scurry back and forth, grabbing drinks from the higher shelves.
The shocking robbery unfolded on Thursday 21 December and the clip was shared widely online. where some people asked where security or staff were at the time of the robbery. But one person said: “We as staff in Tesco can’t stop or challenge shoplifters so this will be happening on a regular basis just saying.”
A spokesperson for the Met Police said, “We are aware of video footage which appears to show a man stealing items from a Tesco store in Cricklewood on Thursday (21). An incident, which we believe is related, was reported to police on 21 December after the suspect had left the premises.”
The same store was targeted just last month by a shoplifting gang of thieves who were caught on camera stealing alcohol in front of stunned shoppers before scarpering out of a Tesco.
