Last Sunday, one wealthy Brazilian businessman was terribly unlucky. A 64-year-old man crashed his luxury sports car during a chaotic pursuit of a robber who had stolen his Rolex watch at gunpoint at a traffic light. The situation can always get worse, or the law of meanness is in action!
The driver of a Lamborghini worth about $400,000 became the victim of a daring armed robbery while stopped at a traffic light on Brigadeiro Faria Lima Avenue.
It happened in broad daylight at 12:45 p.m. A robber on a motorcycle approached him and, at gunpoint, forced him to hand over his $40,000 Rolex watch.
The moment of robbery while stopped at a traffic light
The victim of the robbery could not tolerate such impudence and, when the stream moved again, she chased the thief, trying to knock him down. The maneuver was a success, but there is a nuance. The driver not only hit a motorcyclist, but also crashed into a traffic light pole, smashing his car into trash.

The most annoying thing is that the person he was chasing managed to escape. Naturally, he still had the watch.
The driver and his passenger got out of the car too late to prevent the criminal from escaping, and were forced to watch helplessly.

According to press reports, police identified the perpetrator from the license plate of the motorcycle, as well as from a mobile phone and a pistol, which was also found at the scene. The man is expected to be arrested soon.

It is also alleged that the wrecked Lamborghini was not insured. Its owner received minor cut injuries to his hands and mental trauma, but was otherwise unharmed. “I had to give up my watch because the robber had a gun,” he said.
