The killer food crisis in Venezuela has been revealed in a video, where people resorted to deparate attempts to get meals.


A huge crowd of people in the video, were seen stopping a lorry on the motorway to snatch live chickens from their crates inside. Traffic comes to a standstill as dozens of hungry people sprint over to the truck to grab the birds out of their containers.

The incident has been held up as yet another example of the country's economic crisis, where looting has become commonplace, T13 reported.  

Oil-rich Venezuela has veered into crisis as crude prices have collapsed since mid-2014.
