A man in the US was caught stealing ice cream during a live news report, in a hilarious video that has gone viral on social media and has gathered more than three million views on Twitter.
In the video, a Fox Sports reporter does his piece to camera during a live report on an ice hockey match, with fans cheering and waving in the background. Then, a man in the crowd slyly takes away an ice cream cone from the hand of another person who is busy talking to his friend and looking at his phone.
He takes a large bite of the ice cream and then tries to return it to the owner but decides to disappear into the crowd as the man realizes that his dessert is missing and begins looking around for the thief.
The viral video has been shared by ESPN and the Carolina Hurricanes, one of the teams playing the ice hockey match. "Crime of the century," they tweeted along with the viral video.
