In one of the weirder videos we've seen since, well, this one, a Chilean purse thief was stopped and stripped naked by a "vigilante horde," according to Gawker.
The incident, filmed by a passerby on his cell phone in the town of Providencia then later reported by Chilean news station Mega Noticias, occurred when a man tried to snatch an old woman's purse on the sidewalk of an underpass. When he failed to grab the bag and run, he was surrounded by a group of twisted-minded citizens who proceeded to rip off all of his clothes -- except his shirt, which they made him remove himself.
Then onlookers pelted him from above with coins and empty bottles.
Moral of the story: Chileans take their purse snatching very seriously and would like to see you naked.
