A WOMAN WHO was attempting to steal a potted plant from a front garden was tripped up by karma recently.

Crystal Barrett from California posted the video entitled ‘Face Planting Potted Plant Bandit’ on YouTube.

It shows a woman trying to steal a potted plant falling on her face TWICE as she staggers across the yard carrying the huge pot.

Barret says she ‘recently bought planter pots for the front and back yard’. Adding that:

One of them captured the attention of this woman who wanted it for her own collection.

The attempted robbery happened at 3am on Friday morning and it was filmed on a security camera.

The video also shows that the woman forgot her hat after taking the fall.
