Last Monday 20th, a 19 year old man he was in the company of another person on board a line 11 bus when, in via Porta Catenaat around 12, some traffic controllers got on the vehicle transport company to verify passengers’ travel documents.
Upon seeing the inspectors, one of the two young people managed to get off the bus and walk away while the nineteen-year-old, without a ticket, remained stuck on the vehicle. The reaction of the man, a citizen of Tunisian origins, took the controllers by surprise. The young man, in fact, is pounced on two of them and attacked them with his fists, cursing at them.
The call to the emergency number 112 was immediately made and, after a few minutes, a patrol from the Radiomobile Section of the Ferrara Company arrived on site. At the sight of the soldiers, the nineteen-year-old calmed down, but he was immediately put in handcuffs resistance to a public official. The inspectors, visited at the Cona emergency room, were found wounds judged to heal in 5 and 10 days.
At the end of the operations, the young man was held in the security rooms of the provincial command of the Carabinieri of Ferrara until Tuesday 21 May, when, at the Estense Court, the arrest was validated and the nineteen-year-old was released pending the celebration of the trial.
