Local news reports say soccer legend Pele was held at gunpoint by a band of youths and robbed of a gold necklace, his cell phone and a watch.


The incident ? which took place on June 13 but only made public now ? occurred near the city of Santos in southern Sao Paulo state.

Pele's car was stopped near a slum by at least 10 young men armed with pistols and knives, the respected news magazine Veja reported on its Web site.


The report said Pele was riding on the passenger side of the car and did not report the incident to police.


Repeated calls to Pele's office went unanswered Sunday.

I thought Pele was a man of the people, able to go anywhere, even a slum.
