The incident, captured on video and widely shared on social media, has drawn attention to public safety in one of Europe's most visited tourist destinations.

According to reports circulating online, two men allegedly confronted the tourist before physically restraining him. The attackers reportedly placed the victim in a chokehold while searching through his pockets and stealing his belongings.

The disturbing footage appears to show several pedestrians witnessing the incident from nearby. Despite the violent nature of the attack, few people are seen intervening immediately, raising questions about public response during emergencies.
