KUALA LUMPUR, June 26 — An American man has been arrested for armed robbery after allegedly robbing a woman at gunpoint, then adding her on Facebook and asking her out on a date.
Amber Beraun was checking her mail when Damien Boyce allegedly held her up with a gun and asked her to let him into her house, reported WRTV Indianapolis.Instead of fleeing with the cash, Boyce asked Beraun if she had a boyfriend and demanded she connect with him on social media while still pointing a gun at her.“I thought if maybe I added him on Facebook, he would leave, and he did,” Beraun said.One such message read: “Look you know I’mma pay you back.
Beraun then decided to reply: “I believe you man. I can tell you’re sweet, times just got rough. I know that.”“He really tried to rob me of my own things, but he took away my sense of safety from my own home,” said Beraun. Boyce was arrested for armed robbery last Wednesday. He was also charged with possession of a handgun as a felon.
Boyce was also arrested the week prior for a separate robbery resulting in bodily injury and battery with a deadly weapon.TRENDING
