Two employees at a Circle K convenience store in Globe, Arizona got a call on Wednesday night from someone claiming to be Circle K's head of corporate security. He told them the silent alarm was going off and they had to take care of it.

How was this to be taken care of? The guy told them to spray fire extinguishers all around the store and then throw the extinguishers through the windows.

Oh, and they were also told to destroy all the merchandise in the store and then finally, destroy the registers, security cameras and computers.

And of course the employees obliged the request. Within five minutes they completely trashed the store. They proceeded to smash every window but one and did about $30,000 in damages.

They never caught on that it was a prank.

The store shut down for about 12 hours while the windows were boarded up. Circle K wouldn't say if they would fire the two employees.

Cops did say they wouldn't be facing criminal charges. The guy who called in the prank could be facing charges but police don't have any suspects yet.
