Moment squabbling robbers put on fake Liverpool accents and tell shopkeeper ‘sorry love’ as they apologise during bungled armed raid
CCTV footage has captured the chaotic moment a group of armed robbers bungled a raid on a shop, with one thief seemingly turning on a fake Liverpool accent and apologising to the shopkeeper with "sorry love" as the robbery unravelled. The incident, which appears to have been filmed by security cameras inside the store, shows the robbers squabbling among themselves as the attempted raid fell apart, highlighting how poorly planned and executed the crime was despite the men being armed.
The footage shows the confusion among the group as they struggled to carry out the robbery, with the apparent apology adding a surreal note to what was otherwise a frightening ordeal for the shopkeeper. Details on the exact location, date of the incident, and whether any arrests have been made were not specified in the available report.

A shop was targeted by a group of armed robbers whose attempted raid fell apart in chaotic fashion, as captured on the store's CCTV cameras. Rather than a smooth, controlled hold-up, the footage shows the men bickering among themselves, seemingly unsure of what to do next as things went wrong.
At one bizarre point, one of the robbers appears to switch to a put-on Liverpool accent and tells the shopkeeper "sorry love", an unexpected moment of politeness in the middle of what was still a frightening and dangerous situation for the person behind the counter. The footage has drawn attention largely because the mix of menace and farce is so unusual to see caught on camera.
Details such as exactly where and when the incident took place, and whether police have identified or arrested those involved, have not yet been made public. The clip is notable mainly for showing how an armed robbery, despite the real threat involved, can unravel through poor planning and confusion among the offenders themselves.
