Cameras rolled as two men allegedly attempting to use stolen credit cards at an Eastpointe gas station threw a tantrum and trashed a gas station.

Police said the store clerk on Gratiot Avenue asked the men to leave Sunday after they attempted to use a stack of stolen cards.

A man inside the gas station took cell phone video as the two men ripped merchandise off the counters.

"They had a temper tantrum in the middle of the store, throwing things off of the shelf, breaking an unknown number of wine bottles and grabbing about seven wine bottles as a parting gift," said Eastpointe Deputy Chief Eric Keiser.

After their meltdown -- the two got into a silver Chevy impala -- leaving the mess behind.

If recognize the men, call Eastpointe police at 586-445-5100.
