The man, already known to law enforcement, allegedly targeted two women: he approached them in his car and, pointing a gun, forced them to hand over their bags. The first robbery was reported to the Carabinieri in Chiaia, while the second—an attempted robbery—was reported to the Vomero police station.

The victims' testimonies and details about the car allowed officers to cross-reference the information with investigative software, quickly identifying the suspect. Arrested a few hours after the events, he was immediately identified by the two victims and transferred to prison, where he awaits preliminary hearing.
