This is the romantic moment a pair of love-struck teen criminals shared a kiss infront of CCTV cameras.
The pair were halfway through sharing the kiss after stealing £213 from a till at a store in China's Sichuan province.
But after their romantic moment was captured on camera, police managed to track them down and make an arrest.
Store owner Gong Chen said: "They were amateurs because apart from the cash, they did not take anything of value.
"There were cameras and laptop computers and smart phones and they left it all behind because they were so busy kissing.
"That kiss was their undoing.
"They did it as if they were celebrating but it wasn't for long."
19-year-old Lei Yu and his girlfriend 18-year-old Xiang Ch'iu were arrested after police analysed the footage.
A police spokesman said: "We tracked them down thanks to a tip off from a social media user, and found some of the stolen cash on them.
"They were arrested on the spot."
