EmersonRoyal He was enjoying a few days of rest and relaxation in his native country, when he suffered one of the worst episodes of his life. A robber armed with a gun robbed him in the middle of a public street, while shooting a total of between 17 and 19 times at the pedestrians who were walking by at that moment.
In spite of everything, the former FC Barcelona player managed to keep calm at all times and that everything will, fortunately, be just a scare: “At that moment, God controlled me somehow… because I felt that nothing was happening. I approached the thief telling him ‘calm downCalm down, calm down everyone, I’ll give you whatever you want'”, explained the Brazilian in his last interview with ‘Globo Esporte’.
“When I gave him what he wanted, I went over to him, because I had already seen his evil look. I saw that he wasn’t there just for the watch. When I handed it to him, he walked away and drew his gun to shoot me. As he was about to shoot me, I pushed him, hit the gun and he fired into the air,” Emerson continued.
Emerson recounts the terror of the robbery he suffered: “At that moment I understood that I could die”
“It was at that moment, when I pushed him, that he lost his balance and a policeman shot him. Then, when he fired the shot, he started running. We were in a square, there were 15 people more or less. And he started shooting everywhere. , but it doesn’t hit anyone. 17 or 19 shotsif I’m not mistaken”, said the current Tottenham player.
