Robbed restaurateur, the police commissioner of Arezzo, Maria Luisa Di Lorenzo, received the woman who last April 26 chased the bandits who had stolen the operator’s bag. “It is an opportunity to reiterate the importance of gestures of courage and resourcefulness such as those implemented by Mrs. Maria Cristina and not to look the other way”, said the commissioner in his compliments.
In the late evening of April 26, Maria Cristina, passing her car in via Cristoforo Colombo, precisely at the intersection with via Curtatone, heard a request for help from some people and at the same time saw two men with a purse in their turn to escape.
Having ascertained that it had been a completed robbery, the lady, without hesitation, suddenly turned her car around and began chasing the criminals up to Via del Trionfo where, having parked the car, she continued the chase on foot.
The 2 subjects separated, taking different paths, and the lady decided to follow the person who held the stolen goods, ordering him several times to leave it on the ground. Despite the latter’s threats towards the woman, she did not give up on her intent to recover her stolen goods, managing to reach the man who, now clearly cornered by her, abandoned the purse which was subsequently returned to its rightful owner. .
We all have the duty to participate in the safety of our cities through responsible and civic behavior, promptly reporting or reporting the commission of crimes to the Police Forces”, adds the Commissioner who personally thanked the lady.
