At around 3.10 pm yesterday, a patrol car on duty from the Police Headquarters intervened in Vicenza, in Via Del Carso, where a couple – calling the emergency line 113 – had reported the presence of a man with verbally harassing attitudes towards a woman living in the area, from whom he insistently asked for sexual favors, which she firmly and repeatedly refused.
