A woman in Brazil fell in love with a man who robbed her and now their bizarre love story has gone viral on social media. The couple detailed their romantic saga in a Twitter video which has accumulated more than 38,000 views online.
"I was walking down the street where he lives and unfortunately, I was mugged," the woman, identified as Emanuela, said while recounting her "first date" at an event in Brazil, New York Post reported. The unidentified thief, on the other hand, shared in the clip that he had indeed felt his feelings change for the woman after he saw her photo on her phone.
"I was going through a difficult situation because I didn't have a woman, you know," said the man. "When I saw her photo on the phone, I said to myself 'What a beautiful brunette, you don't see a brunette like that every day,' and I regretted stealing it,'" he added.
The man interviewing the couple then joking said, "So you stole her phone and then her heart?" To this, the thief replied, "Exactly".
