Naples – Movie-like scenes unfolded on the streets of Naples, and a police chase ensued to stop a car that refused to stop at a traffic stop. Two people were arrested.
It happened in the Ponticelli neighborhood , where a Guardia di Finanza patrol attempted to stop a car with two men inside. The two men failed to stop at the traffic stop sign on Via Carlo Miranda. Upon seeing the officers, the driver sped off to avoid being checked.
A lengthy chase ensued, during which the driver engaged in a series of dangerous maneuvers. The mad dash ended on Via Principe di Napoli, where the car collided with a patrol car from the San Giovanni-Barra police station, which arrived to assist the finance police.
But the two men in the car did not give up and, in an attempt to escape, engaged in a fight with finance police, police officers, and officers from the General Prevention and Public Rescue office and the Ponticelli police station, who had meanwhile arrived to assist their colleagues.
In the end, law enforcement officers prevailed over the fugitives: a 26-year-old and a 54-year-old, both Neapolitans with criminal records, some of which were specific, who were arrested for resisting arrest and assaulting a public official and for damaging public property.
From the investigations carried out, it was ascertained that the 26-year-old did not have a driving licence, having never obtained one, and, therefore, the officers contested the relevant sanctions under the Highway Code.
