They have been described as the Bonnie and Clyde of twerkers. But now "Bonnie" may soon be behind bars while "Clyde" remains at large.

Akintunde Mills, 47, was arrested and charged with burglary, possession of stolen property and criminal trespassing, after a December 4 incident where she twerked for an hour outside of a Clinton Hill apartment building-- as an entertaining distraction-- while her partner stole $200 worth of merchandise from mail packages left on the premises, reported Gothamist.

"Her endurance was rather impressive," said victim Lindsey Riddle. "I'm not exaggerating when I say she did this for an hour. A couple of my neighbors walked into the building and she'd stop momentarily and then start up hardcore as soon as their backs were to her."

Here's a sped-up snippet of the surveillance video, showing the suspect at work!
