An 11-year girl and her father scared away a would-be robber in England by pelting the suspect with bread and bottles of squash, according to a report.

The embarrassing botched robbery happened about 10 p.m. Monday local time at a corner store in Worthing, Sussex, according to BBC News.

Surveillance footage from inside Express Supermarket shows the knife-wielding suspect burst through the doors and head toward the counter.

But the man just as quickly fled after the little girl and her dad chucked “squash and a loaf of bread” at him, police said.

Police, who are still searching for the suspect, praised the youngster’s “bravery.”
