Two keys to force a car and start it. A few seconds to escape from Aversa. For Bachir Esposito Luongo and Luigi Carriola it was quite simple. The same for the Carabinieri of the operational section of Giugliano in Campania. In the trunk of the vehicle, in fact, the GPS system provided their position in real time.
The military tracked down the two and began a long chase, which ended in Via San Marco, in the municipality of Melito.
Esposito and Carriola did not have time to open the doors. They were arrested for aggravated theft. In the car were the tools used to tamper with the latch and the ignition control unit.
Both were placed under house arrest, awaiting trial. The vehicle was returned to its rightful owner.
