Milano, more pickpockets on the 91: two thieves discovered.

Yesterday, the State Police a Milano reported two Bosnian women in state of freedom for multiple aggravated theft and improper use of the credit cards in competition.

The agents of the Quarto Oggiaro police station, following the complaint of a ninety-year-old lady, managed to identify and report the two pickpockets, aged 25 and 29, domiciled in via Bolla in Milano, in some campers used by Roma citizens with numerous specific criminal records, both with a ban on residence in the municipality of Milano.

At the beginning of April, the victim, while he was about to get on the bus line 91, was approached by the two women, who began to ask her various questions to distract her and to touch her insistently with the excuse of helping her and then managed to steal her wallet with credit and debit cards from her bag.

Immediately after the theft, the women, after having also identified the ATM pin, managed to carry out eight transactions in two shops and a bank, managing to spend and withdraw around 2.000 euros overall.

The policemen of the Quarto Oggiaro police station, thanks also to the lucid collaboration of the victim, managed to reconstruct the entire chain of events by extrapolating the images of the various cameras present on the buses and in the city and to recognize and identify the two criminals, who had already been arrested by police officers in another theft against elderly people, again on board the same bus line, the time to commit the theft were four.

It appears in the videos extrapolated by the officers the operating method of the criminals is very clear, as they initially try to interact with the victim and, while some distract him, the others quickly commit the theft, rummaging in the pockets or bags. The recommendation of the State Police not to leave various valuables in several different pockets unattended and to always keep the bag in front, closed and under control may therefore be useful. Also important is the suggestion not to leave notes with debit and credit card pins written down in your wallet.
