“Nobody helped us” – Corriere.it

A nightmare evening for a 33-year-old stylist and luxury advisor, attacked in via del Corso by three young men with their faces partially covered by the visors of baseball caps who surrounded him in order to rob the Rolex watch he wore on his wrist. Andrea P. told the police that he was approached by the small group, made up of foreigners, while he was walking with a friend at Via della Croce.

In an instant the designer was blocked and two of the three attackers they tried to snatch his watch, kicking him in the back. A brief scuffle ensued at the end of which the bandits fled empty-handed, also because the victim and his friend started screaming, attracting the attention of other people. Soon after some police cars arrived on the spot and they rescued the 33-year-old, who suffered the fracture of two ribs, who was then invited to file a complaint about the incident. Investigations are made to identify the three attackers.

According to her friend, however, the passers-by would have intervened but only after the bandits had fled, despite the designer was on the ground in pain from the blows taken to defend the watch, worth a few thousand euros. The attack would have taken place after a dinner at the restaurant of the two young men who had left to go home. The 33-year-old was rescued at the Santo Spirito hospital where he was medicated and discharged after a fractured rib was found, probably caused by the kicks taken by one of the robbers. Perhaps personalities known to the police, and for this reason the videos of the video surveillance of via del Corso could be acquired.
