I'm not an expert in crime by any means, but if you wanted to rob someone, wouldn't you want to avoid being caught on camera?
A reporter in Ecuador is shooting a live segment on a street, when a man comes into the shot with a gun and tries to rob the reporter--live on the air! When the reporter tries to get him to stop, the robber then turns the gun toward the camera man, and stole a mobile phone--ALL WHILE THE CAMERA ROLLED.
No one was hurt, but I'm completely baffled at this guy's brazenness and stupidity!
