(ANSA) – BARI, 17 JUN – He would have robbed more than ten elderly people, stealing their trust and being able to enter the house, to then distract them and appropriate money and valuables. On one occasion, driving a stolen car, he also allegedly ran over two 12-year-olds on the pedestrian crossing. The agents of the Bari mobile squad have notified a 36-year-old from Bari, a victim, already detained in the prison of Taranto, a precautionary custody order for numerous episodes of aggravated theft. The disputed facts refer to 2021 and 2022.

The suspect, the investigations have reconstructed, would have chosen her victims, always elderly and lonely people, “precisely because they are generally alone and therefore more vulnerable”, always using the same fraudulent technique. After identifying the victim, that is her, she would approach her in the street and persuade her to return to her house, where, after having distracted her, she would be able to steal money and everything she found of value. The men of the Falchi, after acquiring images extrapolated from the video surveillance cameras of the city, were able to identify the woman, who was also recognized by many of the victims in the complaint. Among the reconstructed facts there is also the investment of the two twelve-year-olds, who reported wounds that could be healed in 10 days, overwhelmed on the pedestrian crossing by a car, stolen shortly before, with the 36-year-old driving.
