Staff foiled an attempted robbery by wrestling a balaclava clad suspect to the floor.

The man wearing the balaclava entered the shop and picked up a crate of beer while another man held the door open for him.

The men were spotted and challenged by shopkeepers who managed to wrestle the man with the beers to the floor, causing him to drop the crate.
