It seems that a Japanese man was robbed of cash in the middle of the night in Barcelona.
The video is below, but since it was live-streamed, I’m sharing it because it’s a pretty rare video that shows the entire incident.
What you can learn from this video is
– Don’t walk home from the casino late at night -> It’s probably better to use a taxi or ride-hailing app (Uber)
– Be careful about live broadcasts late at night -> Record only the video and do voice over to avoid attracting attention
– Please do not walk in empty alleys late at night ->Walk in crowded places as much as possible
– Do not wear expensive watches -> Do not wear them in conspicuous positions
– Be careful of multiple people who are trying to talk to you in a friendly manner -> You may be able to ignore them.
A summary of the situation is below.
An iPhone, Apple wireless earphones, 350 euros in cash were stolen.
When I checked the footage, I saw that the suspect was following me about 700 meters after I left the casino. As we entered a road with fewer people, we gradually closed the distance, and the men called out to us again.
■While laughing, you’re actually saying, “It’s a mess.”
However, if you listen closely to the audio of the video, you can see that he is smiling and speaking in English, expressing his true feelings.
Man B: “Let’s mess it up.”
Man B: “Clock clock!”
Man A: “I’ll take it, so don’t let me go!”
Man B: “His bag, get his bag!”
■Obtain 10 minutes of footage after the robbery
The program obtained 10 minutes of footage that was still being recorded after the video was interrupted. The vivid conversations between the two who escaped were left behind.
Man A: “If that Japanese guy comes back, I’ll hit him again.”
Man B: “Oh no! The punch didn’t land!”
The two were speaking in Arabic with an accent from Algeria, a country located in North Africa.
■Barcelona has become unsafe in recent years.
Barcelona, which is visited by many tourists from Japan, has seen an increase in robberies in recent years and the security situation has worsened.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is warning people not to carry luggage or wear expensive watches on the street.
