ST. PETERSBURG, FL -- Two burglars who tried to break into a St. Pete home went away empty-handed.  One of them likely had a bad headache for his efforts.

Surveillance video captured pair as they tried to break into a home on 36th Avenue North Tuesday afternoon.

One placed himself in a football stance and ran the length of the yard into the porch door with his body.  The latch held quite nicely.  The impact sent the would-be thief flying backwards and onto the ground, where he's seen writhing in pain.

Giving up on the body shots, one of the suspects tossed a brick through a window to get inside.  That didn't work out either.  The house was equipped with an alarm that began blaring away.

The bandits left in their getaway car empty-handed and probably sore. 

The car is described as a small, red two door with a hood scoop and lower ground effects.

Police say both suspects are black males 18-25 years old.  One has light skin and weighs about 150 pounds.  The other suspect has dreadlocks and weighs about 170 pounds.
