The blow launched with the knife to wound a 69-year-old man and the escape: for the episode, which occurred at midday last Sunday in Prato, the police identified and reported two young people aged 25 and 16, tracked down as the alleged perpetrators of the gesture thanks to the description provided by the victim of the attack.
Yes, because at the moment when the police cars arrived at the site of the stabbing, in which the 69-year-old of Chinese origins was injured in the hand, the two had already disappeared.
The police tracked them down shortly after. Stopped and identified, they were citizens of Prato aged 25 and 16. The search revealed that the minor had a switchblade with him, while the older one had pepper spray. Both were reported in a state of freedom: the very young man for carrying weapons or instruments capable of offending, the 25 year old for violence and threatening a public official after he had railed against the operators near the police station. The teenager was placed with a parent.
