DOVER TWP., Pennsylvania (WPVI) -- Two would-be car thieves in York County, Pennsylvania were stopped in their tracks, and there is video showing their attempted heist gone wrong.

Northern York County Regional police say the suspects used a Chevrolet Camaro that was on the lot to smash through the front entrance at Thornton Automotive in Dover Township early Monday morning.

According to police, the would-be thieves also wanted to steal the Dodge Challenger that was in the showroom. There was just one problem -- the car they used to get inside was stuck on the front steps and doorway.

The suspects took off on foot without taking anything.
