The man snatched the bag away from the young woman before running from the scene.
The naked woman gave chase while the group of locals carried on as though nothing had happened.
The alleged robbery took place in the city of Cuernavaca located south of Mexico City, Mexico, last Friday (21 Mar).
According to witnesses, the woman had just entered a local hotel, as reported by Need To Know.
While undressing, a man allegedly grabbed the woman’s belongings and ran out of the hotel.
Without a second thought, and apparently unconcerned about her lack of clothing, the woman gave chase.
It’s unclear whether she managed to catch the suspected thief to reclaim her belongings.
One local said: “Why didn’t anyone in the city centre stop him?”
Another added: “Nobody helped the girl, what a bunch of scumbags.”
Julio remarked: “The state has gone to sh*t, there are even assaults on young women in broad daylight, they don’t respect anything anymore.”
According to reports, residents and business owners are concerned about the surging crime wave in the city.
The police have launched an investigation.
