Brazilian Thief Steals Woman's 'Virgin' Hair in Goiania

The only truly odd part of this story is that the cop never had seen anything like this before. Because I hear those stories for the last 20 years at least - maybe they were urban myths then? And now they're coming true? Also, her pastor doesn't have anything better to do? Jesus.

From AOL:

Brazilian police say a thief cut off and stole a woman's long hair while she waited at a bus stop. Police say the hair was virgin, meaning it had not been chemically treated, and will probably be sold for the production of wigs.

Inspector Jose Carlos Bezerra da Silva said Friday to Globo TV's G1 website that the woman was waiting for a bus in the central city of Goiania when the man used a knife-like weapon to cut the hair, which reached past her waist. She said she thought the man was going to steal her purse so she turned her back to him.
Silva said he'd never seen a theft like it in 20 years.

He said the 24-year-old woman reported the case to police because she is evangelical and had to explain to her pastor why her hair wasn't long anymore.
