A Buenos Aires-area store store owner is saying three Argentine robbers used a baby as their "innocent accomplice" during a recent stickup, a claim immediately proven by the recently released surveillance footage above.
"It was their strategy," shop owner Marcel Taraborrellitells EFE News. "It’s obvious that the woman carried the baby to make it look like everything was alright." The footage shows the baby crawling around on the floor as the stickup continues in the background.
According to Taraborrelli, two robbers walked into the shop pretending to be customers. They then stated they needed to use the ATM before the third "attacker" suddenly entered the building. One of the three then beat up the cashier before wrestling him to the floor and tying him up while the others secured their haul, according to the New York Daily News. Though the trio did eventually make it out with at least $5,200 worth of stock, their current whereabouts remain unknown.
