Another episode of crime in NapoliLast night, a burglary attempt was foiled at a drugstore in Vomero. The thieves attempted to force open the shop's shutters, but were chased away by the timely intervention of the Carabinieri, alerted by a resident of the building.
The owner of the parapharmacy, exasperated by the constant attacks on his business, reported the incident to MP Francesco Emilio Borrelli. "This is the seventh incident of robberies and thefts in the last four years.", declared the owner. "Despite the cameras and reinforced shutters, thieves continue to strike. It's unacceptable that citizens have to live in this situation of fear and insecurity."
