The plan was to rob the post office in Brunella, a hamlet of Torpè, but when the raid was launched they found themselves faced with the police who had been keeping an eye on them for hours. It happened late this morning.

For two criminals, what might have seemed like an easy heist turned into a miserable failure. One of the two, originally from a center in the Nuoro area, ended up in handcuffs, while his accomplice managed to escape to the nearby countryside.

An extensive manhunt has been launched against him which has been going on for hours also with the help of an Army helicopter.
