Woman ‘catches fiance cheating on Russian street view tool’

A woman managed to catch her fiance in the arms of another female after spotting him on an online street view tool in Russia.

Marina Voinova was devastated to find her partner Sasha had been captured in one of the service's photographs cuddling up to a mystery woman.

Ms Voinova immediately recognised her lover in the shot, as he had been wearing a cast on his arm at the time it was taken.

When Sasha returned home after her discovery, she told him to look up the address on the street view gadget, after which his face is said to have "changed in colour".

"At first I regretted searching for that address on the internet, but eventually realised that it was silly to blame the web for my boyfriend's unfaithfulness," Ms Voinova explained.

The Russian application, Yandex, does not blur the faces of people captured in its images, as Google does.
