Succivo – A 22-year-old from Caserta ended up in handcuffs after the Carabinieri of the Marcianise Company caught him with 200 grams of cocaine, a half-kilo homemade explosive device and 1.100 euros in cash, presumed proceeds of drug dealing.
The operation, coordinated by Captain Daniele Petruccelli, was launched during an extraordinary control service carried out between yesterday evening and the early hours of today with eleven patrols and the assistance of the canine units of the Nucleus of Sarno.
