England fans arrested for robbing Brazilian cab driver

Two England fans were arrested Wednesday for allegedly trying to rob a Brazilian taxi driver, in a twist on British tabloid warnings of rampant crime at the World Cup.

Military police in the southeastern city of Belo Horizonte, where England drew 0-0 with Costa Rica on Tuesday in the final match of their ill-fated World Cup campaign, say the pair refused to pay the fare for a cab ride in the city center and then tried to take all the driver's money.

It comes after police arrested four people including a British man on drug-trafficking charges Tuesday in Belo Horizonte.

Police in the city have arrested more than 100 people since the World Cup began on June 12, including 50 foreigners -- mostly accused of drug use, theft, illegal weapons possession, damaging public property and insulting police.

Probably those foreigners arrested were looking for a Brazilian BIG new experience and change in their lives. At least, after few days in jail, they will get all the skills to move to Thailand for a new "ladyboy" life.

The BK Hilton is a wellness resort comparing with any Brazilian prison....
