A graduate of the Italian Army, effective at the 17 ° Regiment Artillery Controaerea "Sforzesca" of Sabaudia (LT) and employed in the operation Safe Streets in Verona, late yesterday afternoon, while he was in rest in the city center, he noticed an individual who quickly came out of a shop, pursued by a woman who loudly tried to draw the attention of those present.

The soldier promptly put himself in pursuit of the man, succeeding in a short time to reach him and immobilize him. Meanwhile, recalled by the aforementioned lady, a patrol of the same "Sforzesca" Regiment, which was in surveillance service at the nearby synagogue, immediately communicated the event to the law enforcement agency, requesting the support of a patrol of Carabinieri who, having arrived at the site, proceeded to recognize the detainee, already suspected of numerous obscene acts in a public place, and to his transfer to the local Station.
