Arizona man shows up for Tinder meet-up, gets robbed by armed couple
Jose Sandoval Jaquez, 32, and Crystal Hulsey, 33, were arrested in connection with the fake Tinder date robbery in Phoenix
An Arizona man arrived at a hotel for what he believed was a Tinder date, but it turned out to be an armed robbery in which a couple stole his personal belongings and thousands of dollars.

Jose Sandoval Jaquez, 32, and Crystal Hulsey, 33, were arrested in connection with the robbery after several days on the run.

The victim showed up at an Embassy Suites hotel room in Phoenix last month after matching with a woman whose Tinder profile said her name was "Sonya," according to Phoenix police.

When he made it to the room, Jaquez pointed a gun at the victim and demanded his property. The victim handed over his cell phone, identification cards, social media accounts, PIN code and bank account information.
