Phuc X. Kieu’s mugshot

A Florida man has learned the hard way why it’s really not a good idea to attempt to rape people.

58-year-old Phuc X. Kieu (we swear that’s his real name) was arrested after a bizarre gay-x-rated-fantasy-turned-burglary/gay-rape-attempt gone awry at an ATM machine in Orlando.

According to police, Kieu, who works as a licensed nail specialist, had been watching gay sex videos on a portable DVD player in the driver’s seat of his Honda Civic, which he had parked near a Campus USA credit union ATM machine at around 4:25 p.m. on Sunday afternoon. A man, whose name has not been released, went up and withdrew $220 from the machine. And that’s when Kieu jumped out of his car, pulled the man into the driver’s seat, straddled him and tried ripping off his clothes.

The man wrestled himself free and made a mad dash down the street, but not before Kieu was able to grab his backpack, pulling him back towards the vehicle. The man eventually broke free of Kieu’s grip and ran to a nearby shopping center hollering, “Rapist! Rapist!”

At some point, police say, the $220 the man had withdrawn was lost.

Police arrived at the scene short thereafter and arrested Kieu. He was booked into the Alachua County jail on charges of sexual assault, kidnapping and robbery without a weapon. Bail was set at $150,000. (That’s a lot of mani/pedis).

As for the $220, it remains missing.
