The Argentine mobile phone thief did not leave the Russian woman: she clung tightly

A Russian woman stopped in front of a pedestrian crossing in Buenos Aires when a motorcyclist snatched her mobile phone from her hands. But he couldn't rush off. The girl clung tightly to the kidnapper. Later, pedestrians and drivers ran up to her to help.

"Brave 33-year-old blonde from Russia was calmly riding her bike through the Palermo district in Buenos Aires. Two thieves on a motorcycle approached her from behind and tried to snatch the phone from her hands. The Russian tourist did not lose her head and immediately grabbed the 26-year—old criminal by the leg with a death grip, simultaneously handing out bream to him," the SHOT telegram channel reports, which published a video of the incident.

"One phone thief fell off his motorcycle, remaining in the strong arms of a fragile blonde until the police arrived. But the motorcycle driver stepped on the gas and left the scene of the crime. Later, he and other accomplices were tracked down by cameras and arrested," the telegram channel continued.
