Brazil's injured forward Neymar gives thumbs up as he sits on the bench during the third place play-off football match between Brazil and Netherlands during the 2014 FIFA World Cup at the National Stadium in Brasilia on July 12, 2014.
A mentally unstable man stole an ambulance from a hospital in Santa Marta to search for Brazilian striker Neymar.
The authorities arrested the man, who drove the vehicle 13 km away from where it was stolen. Local media reported that while he was being arrested, he shouted "Leave me, Neymar is waiting for me", reports Efe.
The man gave the car keys to the police with no resistance. His relatives got him released from custody on the plea that he is mentally disturbed.
Neymar sustained a fractured vertebra during the quarterfinal against Colombia in the World Cup.
