Bosnia-Herzegovina's coaching staff almost robbed by armed men in Brazil
We've all heard about the crime problem in Brazil, but most of us assumed that the nations visiting for the World Cup would be sheltered in some capacity from threats of violence.
Not so for Sufet Sušić and the coaching staff of Bosnia-Herzegovina, who almost fell victim to a group of armed thieves while out on the streets of Guaruja, where the Dragons have been training.
A group of armed men approached Susic and the Bosnian coaching staff in Guaruja. Police immediately recognized the threat and intervened.

Scary stuff, but not only was Bosnia-Herzegovina's manager able to avoid losing his valuables, he maintained his sense of humor as well.
After the incident, Susic and company joked that they dealt with much more serious situations back in BiH.
