The pair continued to stream the drama even after getting caught. They turned the live video off about an hour later when police arrived and demanded they stop filming and delete the stream.

The stream was posted to Chinese livestreaming service Yi Zhi Bo (一直播), which encourages viewers to donate small amounts of money to the broadcaster.

The service takes a cut of its users' donations -- a revenue model commonly used by Chinese sites, including the platforms Huajiao and Ingkee.

Xiao Zhao, who livestreams on Yi Zhi Bo as "I'm Blue Fatty" (叫蓝胖子), said he only earned about 100 yuan ($14.5) from the stunt because he had to delete the broadcast, cutting off the possibility of earning more from people tuning in later.

But other reports have speculated that Xiao Zhao's takings were more in the range of 60,000 yuan ($8,712), based on him earning 600,000 virtual coins on the platform.

Ikea said it would step up security after the incident to discourage similar stunts.
