Torre del Greco. A lightning strike, but with an equally rapid epilogue. Yesterday morning, the State Police arrested a 38-year-old local man, already known to the police, on charges of aggravated robbery and receiving stolen goods.
The intervention, triggered by a report from the Operations Room, saw the officers of the Police Station as protagonists Greek's tower. The incident occurred on Via Nazionale, where a man, his face covered by a neck warmer, burst into a bar and threatened to kill an employee. Pretending to pull a gun from his waistband, he managed to get the takings, and then fled on a scooter.
Thanks to the timely analysis of the images from the video surveillance cameras and the Checks on the territory, the police quickly tracked down the scooter, abandoned near the home of a man under the alternative measure of probation. Although the suspect had already been checked a few hours earlier, the officers decided to search the home.
The choice proved to be a winning one: between the entrance and the bathroom, the clothes used during the robbery were found, while on the dresser in the bedroom, part of the stolen money was found. The loot was promptly returned to its rightful owner.
A rapid and decisive intervention that, once again, highlighted the efficiency of the State Police in combating crimes on the territory.
