Boy, 17, meets tragic end just moments after stealing 71 year-old man's phone
Shocking surveillance footage shows the moment a 17-year-old boy is killed after being run over by a bus while attempting to steal an elderly man's cellphone.
The teenager is seen walking up to the 71-year-old man while he was talking on the phone on a street corner in the southeastern Brazilian city of São Paulo last Friday.
The victim appeared as he was about to cross to the opposite sidewalk when the teen suddenly grabbed his cell phone and took off running.
A few seconds elapsed when the bus crossed the intersection and plowed into the unsuspecting perp before it immediately came to a full stop.
The teenager, whose name was not released, was rushed to Brasilândia Hospital, where he later died from the injuries he sustained.

Pedro Garbin, 38, told Brazilian news outlet Metropoles that the boy was able to get out from under the bus without assistance.
'(He) rolled onto the curb. He was lying down, talking, moving,' the businessman said.
Gabriel Silva, 20, was cutting a customer's hair at a barbershop and was startled by the impact of the bus hitting the teen.
'I heard a loud noise and ran out into the street immediately,' he said. '(He was) lying in agony on the ground.'

At least 158,150 thefts and 137,891 cell phone robberies were reported in the state of São Paulo in 2023, according to the annual report released by the Brazilian Security Forum last Wednesday.
In São Paulo, the state capital, an average of 1,781.6 cell phones were stolen or robbed per every 100,000 inhabitants, crime data shows.
In all, 937,294 cell phones were robbed or stolen throughout Brazil last year, an average of 107 per hour.
Brazilian Security Forum director, Samira Bueno, told Brazilian news outlet G1 that the uptick in cell phone robberies and thefts marked a 'profound change in the dynamics of property crime' in the South American nation.
'It was already a trend, but with the reduction in the circulation of people, with the digitalization of banking in general, both cell phone theft and fraud are becoming more accessible because your entire life is on your cell phone,' Bueno said.
'Sometimes it's not just yours, it's your entire family's life. It's photos, it's other people's contacts. This reveals a change in patterns.'
