World Cup journalists robbed at gunpoint

Three journalists covering the World Cup in South Africa have been robbed at gunpoint by two men who broke into their hotel 75 miles outside Johannesburg, close to where the Portuguese team are staying. Portuguese journalist Antonio Fimoes was held at gunpoint by one man while the other rummaged through his belongings. He also rifled through the bags of Spanish journalist Miguel Serrano and Rui Gustavo Morais from Portugal. But they remained asleep throughout the raid. The robbers escaped with money, passports, photographic material and clothing. Sources: AP / PA / Guardian
