This is the shocking moment a Russian man stabs a sex shop saleswoman to death before stealing two sex toys for men, which were later found in his flat.

The 33-year-old saleswoman, name not reported, was stabbed over 10 times in the sex shop on Dybenko Street in the Russian city of Saint Petersburg, where she died of her injuries on the night of 18th February.

On 20th February, the police arrested a 30-year-old local resident, name not disclosed, who reportedly admitted his guilt.

The suspect said he had planned to rob the store, but had no intention of killing anyone.

He is quoted as telling officers: “I first went to the store in the evening, but there was a man in there and I got nervous and left. I walked around and waited for the nearby stores to close at 10pm.

“When I went in [to the sex shop], a woman came out to serve me and I threatened her with a knife.

“I told her to open the back room and go in there. I wanted to lock her in there and rob the store, but she said she would press the panic button.”

He added: “I lost it and stabbed her several times.”

The incident was filmed by the sex shop’s CCTV cameras. After apparently stabbing the victim multiple times, the suspect is seen taking two sex toys, described as male massagers, that were reportedly found in his home during his arrest.

The police investigation continues.
