The two policemen were bruised and had to seek treatment in the emergency room (where they had a prognosis of about ten days).
The Tunisian boy was arrested for possession and dealing of drugs and injury and resistance to a public official, while the other, also in his twenties, has for the moment been reported at large for possession of some doses of hashish.
Yesterday morning at the validation process at the Court of Velletri the single judge on the ground floor of the criminal courtroom validated the arrest.
