A Russian man rammed an armoured personnel carrier into a shop window before climbing through the rubble to steal a single bottle of wine.

The man stole the vehicle from a privately-run motorsport training ground, drove it through a forest and into Apatity, a small town just south of the Arctic circle, local news agency Hibinform said.

Struggling to turn around in a narrow street, the man, whom witnesses described as being drunk, slammed the tank into the window of a convenience store, the news agency said.

He also crushed a car parked nearby, images showed.

Footage shared on social media showed the man climbing out of a hatch, briefly inspecting the damage, and climbing into the shop through the broken window.

He was later arrested in possession of a stolen bottle of wine, Hibinform said.

The shop was not licensed to sell alcohol that early in the morning, the agency added.

Witnesses visible in the footage did not seemed particularly disturbed by the incident.

The man, in his late twenties, did not resist arrest, RIA news agency reported.

There has been a fair few of these lately. There was one the other day where two people robbed a servo for a bottle of Gatorade.

We had a ram raid at our local bottle-o a while back. The guy drove through the door. Climbed out of his car with car feet cutting his feet up on the broken glass. Climbed over the counter, stole one pack of smokes, then drove off.

I have to clarify even though my nickname is TANK and I'm 1/4 Russian, I don't drink wine.

I'm 1/16 Armenian (so you're technically my Soviet brother-in-arms) and I hate wine. Give me scotch any day!

It would be so much easier to leave a packet of durries outside with a note saying: "if you are going to be a lowlife thieving ****, just take these"

In most theft situations the damage to the victim's property is more than the value of the good stolen.

I got a question. Why didn't the guy just run into the shop, pinch the bottle, then leg it? What was the point of ramming it with a tank? Was the shop closed?

I think when you're stealing tanks and ramming them into shops, it's about more than just being thirsty.

Whoever condemns this man has no sense of reality or humour.

On another note after 15 years of being abstinence of scotch, I finally have gotten back into, although I still can’t handle Chivas or anything like that, it has to be Laphroaig or lagauvlin scotch single malt they’re $100+ bottles, I want to save up to buy the $3k version, legit can’t get enough of the stuff.

The reason I hated scotch is coz it was the first time I’d gotten drunk and I got so sick that every time after I’d smell the scotch my mind would remind me of the episode and makes my liver Cry, but my abstinence has been cured by actual real scotch.

Glen Fiddich is the 2nd finest scotch I have tried.

The best scotch I ever had was called Glen Mist but it was home brewed by a guy who has since passed. Bless his all knowing home brewing soul.

Is that anything like Rakija? Had some homemade version of that once (from a Serbian mate). God it burned.
Can't be any worse than Absinthe right?

It's the ONLY alcohol I've ever spewed on (once out of teenage phase), and boy was it a violent chunder.

NEVER again.

Freisengeist on the other hand... HELLS YES!!
