Authorities said a man from Boston had a stun gun pulled on him Tuesday morning, as he was being robbed by a woman he met through an online dating app.

The unidentified man rendezvoused with the young woman at a local hotel, the Associated Press reported.

He told police the two talked for about 30 minutes before she pointed a Taser stun gun at him and began rifling through his pockets.

She allegedly stole $100 in cash before law enforcement was called in.

The man reportedly alerted hotel security first, after he escaped the room. When police officers arrived on the scene the woman claimed she'd never met the man.
