Santa Maria Capua Vetere – A routine traffic stop quickly escalated into an assault on Carabinieri officers. It happened late yesterday morning, November 24, 2025, when a patrol from the Santa Maria Capua Vetere Company's Operations and Radiomobile Unit stopped an Opel Insignia whose license plate number, upon immediate investigation, was found to be associated with a vehicle already under administrative seizure.
The driver was a 44-year-old woman, a resident of the city.

Yesterday's incident appears to be serious and demonstrates how traffic situations can escalate into more serious situations. We hope the woman receives a just punishment and that the officers recover quickly from their injuries.
