- A burglar in Indianapolis made his victim add him on Facebook at gunpoint.
- He later messaged her saying was "too pretty to rob" and asked her to "come chill."
A burglar is alleged to have made his victim add him on Facebook at gunpoint and later messaged her saying that she was "too pretty to rob," a report says.
Amber Beraun was getting her mail from the mailbox in Indianapolis in May when she alleges she was accosted by a man with a gun, local outlet WRTV reported.
"He took it out of his pocket to show me what was going on — 'let me into your house'. I did not do that," Beraun alleges.
The man, who has been identified as Damien Boyce, took roughly $100 from her, she alleges.
Boyce then pointed his gun at her and told her to add him on Facebook, court documents say, per WRTV.
"I thought if maybe I added him on Facebook, he would leave, and he did," she said.
Boyce later messaged her on Facebook, court documents say, including one message stating: "Damn, you wass too pretty to rob."
He asked her to "come chill" and said he would pay her back.
Beraun told WRTV that the incident had shaken her up and taken away her "sense of safety from my own home."
"It makes me a little on edge knowing that people walk up and down the street, looking for places to commit crimes," she said. "It makes it a little different when you hear noises at night."
Boyce was also charged in the gunpoint robbery of Beraun last week and is being held on a $7,500 bond, according to court records obtained by USA Today.
