The Carabinieri of the Cagliari Radiomobile Section arrested, in flagrante delicto, a 46-year-old unemployed, single man, resident in Monserrato and already known to the police, for attempted aggravated theft.

During a routine patrol of the territory, the soldiers, passing through via del Redentore, heard suspicious metallic noises coming from outside a tobacconist's shop. Suspicious, they immediately approached to verify what was happening and, arriving near the shop, they surprised the man while, with the help of two iron sticks and a brick, he was trying to force open the cigarette vending machine.

The man was thus stopped, identified and taken to his home under house arrest, awaiting the validation hearing with a direct trial.
