A man was caught stealing at a store in Middelburg, Mpumalanga.
The unsuspecting booster was seen on CCTV as he entered the hardware store, seemingly in a hurry.
If you had cast your eye over at him, he would not strike you as a man on a mission to shoplift, especially at a shop that sells tools and other hardware.
Unsuspecting booster caught on CCTV
The camera followed the man to a vacant isle. Unaware that he was being watched, the suspect stood for a second, eyeing the item he was there to steal and further proving his intentions were premeditated.
Suddenly, the booster bent down and reached for a tool we were unable to identify. With the item in his hands, the man stood for a few moments as he removed the item from its wrap.
The video ends as he was about to attempt an escape.
