The Carabinieri of the Torre Annunziata company – as part of the services arranged by the provincial command of Naples – carried out a high impact service in the city.

Reinforced checkpoints and several searches in the public housing district "Trento Park" known for the tragic death of Matilde Sorrentino. The Carabinieri of the Oplontina company were supported by the soldiers of the Campania regiment, the dog unit, the helicopter carabinieri unit of Pontecagnano and the Fire Brigade. The latter were engaged in the removal of fixed obstacles.

86 people identified and 57 vehicles checked, 8 of which were seized.
During the operations, Salvatore Gallo, a 21-year-old local already known to the police, ended up in handcuffs for possession of drugs for the purpose of dealing. The Carabinieri found and seized 37 grams of marijuana, various materials for packaging the drug, a precision scale and 3 folding knives.

The drugs were inside a cellar but it was not easy to find them. The key to the "hideout" was in fact inside the 21-year-old's home and did not open any doors. The soldiers searched all the rooms on the ground floor - one by one - until that key opened the lock of the cellar used by the boy who was taken to prison awaiting trial.

The anti-drug operation continued with the discovery and seizure of an abusive video surveillance system. 4 micro cameras were seized that had been positioned in the external electrical system that surrounds the building, thus monitoring the entire area. The Carabinieri found that the “live” broadcast could be seen and recorded by a device hidden on the roof of number 39 where the possible lookout would be positioned.

A modified “Bruni” brand replica pistol, caliber 8, without the red cap, with 45 blank bullets of the same caliber was found and seized in a common area.Torre Annunziata

The Carabinieri together with the staff of the State Monopolies Agency checked 4 betting shops in Via Vittorio Veneto identifying all those present. One business was fined because it was found to be lacking the required authorization documentation relating to the entertainment machines present there and the serving of drinks and food.
