Chiavari: He snatches an elderly woman's purse, 24-year-old arrested
The State Police arrested a 24-year-old Moroccan man in the act of committing aggravated robbery. The officers of the investigative team of the Chiavari Police Station, during a service in civilian clothes for the prevention of predatory crimes, while they were driving in their cars in the centre of Chiavari, noticed a subject, disguised with a hood, who was running holding a bag in his hand followed by an elderly woman who was yelling at him. I immediately understood what had happened. They chased him and stopped him and the young man immediately admitted his responsibilities.
Immediately after, the woman arrived and, still in a panic, explained that shortly before her purse had been stolen while she was returning home in the entrance hall of the building specifying that the young man had also threatened her with a metal object before fleeing.
The 24enne he was accompanied to the office by the Police Station patrol car which had intervened in the meantime and, at the order of the Public Prosecutor on duty he was associated with the Genoa Marassi District Prison.
