of female armed robber stripped, beaten and set alight by angry lynch mob

Female armed robber stripped, beaten and set alight by angry lynch mob: Alejandra Maria Torres was stripped naked to her waist, beaten and set on fire after being caught pickpocketing.

Stripped naked to the waist, she begs for mercy as she is savagely beaten by a lynch mob in the middle of the street.

Alejandra Maria Torres was part of an armed gang that tried to rob bus passengers in Guatemala City.

But as she tried to escape the passengers stripped and beat her before dousing her in petrol and setting her alight.

Police put out the flames and arrested her. Her three companions escaped.

Lynchings are common in Guatemala. In the last year, mobs have attacked more than 250 people, leaving at least 40 of them dead.
