A burglar in a bizarre horse mask and a Rastafarian hat disguise was caught on camera stealing snacks.

The intruder entered a sauna in the city of Novocherkask in south-western Russia’s Rostov Oblast region.

The footage sees the man walking into the building wearing a horse mask, a dreadlocks wig, and a red, gold and green woolly hat.

Also wearing a tartan scarf, long black coat, leather gloves and black boots, he cautiously steps across the foyer.

With nobody around, he walks down a flight of steps where he is seen trying to open door until he spots a fridge behind a counter.

Opening the fridge, he throws his hands up in delight at what he sees and stashes some snacks and drinks inside his coat.

As he makes his way back through the building, it looks as if he is putting on a show for the cameras as he steals a fire extinguisher.

The horse-faced intruder then makes his way back up the stairs, through the foyer and leaves the building through the same door he entered.

The footage of the surreal burglary was shared widely online.
