tattoo artist catches teenager ‘stealing bike’ and inks his forehead with ‘thief’

A tattoo artist in Brazil has been arrested for torture after inking ‘I am a thief’ on the forehead of a 17-year-old, who allegedly stole a bike.

Maycon Wesley Carvalho dos Reis, 27, and his neighbour, Ronildo Moreira de Araújo, 29, cornered the teenager and tattooed the inscription on his head.

The full words, written in Portuguese are: Eu sou ladrão e vacilão, which translates to ‘I am a thief and a loser’.

In a shocking video, the youngster, who has not been since, is sat on a chair as he is branded. The pair were reported to the police after the images went viral.
