This is the moment a cruel couple were caught on camera stealing from an elderly woman after distracting her while she shopped in a supermarket.
The 78-year-old pensioner was doing her weekly shop at Aldi, in Bell Green, Coventry, when the despicable thieves struck.
Crystal-clear CCTV footage from May 29 shows a woman approaching the OAP and picking up a bag of potatoes before striking up a conversation with her.
While her back is turned the female crook’s partner can then be seen dipping into her personal trolley bag and swiping her purse containing £60.
