Suspect climbs ladder, cuts hole in ceiling and drops into shop to steal from cash register

Police are searching for two suspects captured on video using a ladder to break into a shop in Philadelphia.

CCTV released by the Philadelphia Police Department shows two male suspects outside the mini market at around 4:45am on 3 June 3.

They can be seen using a ladder to gain access to the second floor of the building.

According to police, one masked and hooded suspect then cut a hole in the floor to gain entry to the mini market below.

Once inside, the suspect attempted to open the ATM. When that failed, he allegedly took money from the cash register and merchandise before fleeing.
