A bold thief was caught on camera apparently attempting to break into a car in broad daylight in a busy street. The incident occurred in High Street in Connah's Quay on the morning of Friday, July 8, as people went about their day.
The footage, which was shared on YouTube, shows that at around 10.55am a man being driven by someone else in a black Vauxhall Insignia pulled up beside a black Volkswagen Golf parked outside the local Tesco Express store. The front seat passenger, wearing a pair of navy shorts and a black jacket, brandishes a tool before he forces his way through the car window head-first. North Wales Live reported that the man in question also attempted to hide his identity with a blue surgical mask, navy baseball cap, and some black gloves.
Not put off by the blaring car alarm, or the passing shoppers, he continued to rifle through the contents of the car as his legs dangle out of the car window before making a swift getaway. The man appeared to leave empty-handed.
