A VIDEO of two burglars dancing went viral after CCTV captured the act, Makkal Osai reported.
The two thieves broke into the temple near a college campus in Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu.
Though initially focused on the donation box, they were alarmed when they spotted the CCTV camera pointing at them.
However, shock gave way to mirth as the two men gyrated and gestured as if they were unconcerned about being recorded.
Police are looking for the duo.
