Young football players in the middle of a game took cover on the pitch when gunshots were fired during a frantic police pursuit in Uruguay.

Footage shows the athletes lying low on the field in the La Lanera area of Durazno on August 13.

Officers were reportedly chasing after two people who had allegedly stolen a motorcycle. They fired a warning shot after the pair refused to cooperate.

The suspects were later arrested and sent to the Prosecutor's Office to undergo legal proceedings.

Durazno Police Chief Richard Marcenal said no one was injured, and the criminals - who have also been charged with selling drugs - were unarmed during the chase.
