A SUMO wrestler ripped a cash machine out of a Moscow store, walking off with the bulky 90kg machine on his shoulders, police say.

The man and an accomplice walked into a Moscow shopping mall on Friday and detached a cash machine containing 25,000 roubles ($A930), Moscow city police said in a statement.

A shop assistant who witnessed the crime called police and the two men were arrested as they tried to escape in a getaway car. The strongman later told police he was a professional sumo wrestler.
