CCTV footage of a couple trying to escape after using a stolen credit card to buy a can of cold drink at a Canadian store has gone viral, with over 4-million views so far.

The video shows the couple giving the security guard the run around with the woman, who was wearing a tank top and short shorts, even falling through the ceiling.

The pair have been named a very poor attempt at Bonnie and Clyde after two minutes of trying to escape, only to get caught, escape and then get caught again.
