You can do plenty, but you want to cause this mess? You’re crazy,” she said in Cantonese.Even though the woman was not physically harmed, she was still taken to the hospital as a precaution and later discharged.The First Humanoid Robot Arrested by Police🤖👮‍♀️One night in Macau, a citizen was taking a walk with his humanoid robot (Unitree G1).A passing woman yelled at him (perhaps frightening her), essentially saying, “Why bother with this when there are so many other things to do?… pic.twitter.com/moCBhsDeRW— CyberRobo (@CyberRobooo) March 7, 2026Eventually, two officers intervened and escorted the robot away.
