An investigation into a bizarre case in Brazil is underway after a woman died with dozens of iPhones glued to her body. The woman, 20, died after she fell ill on a bus that stopped at a restaurant on a major road in Guarupuava in Brazil’s central region of Paraná.

Military police in the country said the woman was found with 26 iPhones glued to her. She was treated on the bus by Mobile Emergency Care Service (SAMU), where she was found awake but suffering shortness of breath.

Shortly after, she displayed symptoms that were consistent with a post-seizure seizure and respiratory distress. Then, her heart stopped and she stopped breathing. It comes after a Brit mum’s ‘horrendous’ death after being scratched by a puppy with rabies on holiday.

Paramedics tried to revive her for around 45 minutes, but she was pronounced dead at the scene. As medical assistance was administered, it was noticed that several packages including the phones were attached to her.

No drugs were found on the woman by a police sniffer dog, after experts from the ‘Scientific Police’ and the Civil Police were called to investigate. Several bottles of alcohol were found in the woman’s luggage and seized.

“The Paraná Civil Police are investigating the case and awaiting the conclusion of forensic reports to clarify the cause of death. According to preliminary information, the woman, who was alone, was traveling from Foz do Iguaçu to São Paulo. The 26 cell phones that were glued to her body were seized and sent to the Federal Revenue Service,” police said according to Brazilian news outlet Globo.

The identity of the woman has not been released by authorities. An investigation remains ongoing.

In an unrelated incident elsewhere in Brazil, journalist Clara Nery, suffered a shock incident while gearing up to report live on camera. A TV correspondent for the Band network, Clara was mugged on a sidewalk in Botafogo, a southern Rio de Janeiro neighborhood, moments before going live for the Bora Brasil morning program on Monday, July 28.

In the bizarre clip, Clara can be seen typing intently on her phone in the run up to the live broadcast, as a man on a motorbike appears in the background and slowly closes in on the reporter. While driving past Clara, the assailant can be seen reaching out and swiping the journalist’s phone from her hand.

he clip shows Clara screaming out in shock and letting out a swear word before lunging after her phone and disappearing from the camera’s view.

Clara later confirmed the mugger was unable to steal and make off with her device as she had a firm grip on it. She said: “I had my back turned when this man rode by on a motorcycle on the sidewalk and tried to take my phone. In the video, you can see the moment he puts his hand on my phone and takes it from me.

“Luckily, and despite his lack of skill, I managed to retrieve the phone. But we already have the security camera footage, the camera that managed to focus on his face.”
