Follonica \u2013 The Carabinieri have dismantled a suspected robbery gang in Follonica. Following an intensive investigation, four people were arrested on 4 November and accused of a total of 31 offences. Three men aged 26, 29 and 41 were placed in pretrial detention, while a 45-year-old woman was ordered to report to the judicial police daily.<\/p>\n
The suspects allegedly carried out a systematic and intensive series of thefts, robberies, unauthorised use of electronic payment cards and handling stolen goods between 21 July and 29 September 2026. The offences targeted private individuals, tourists and public institutions in Follonica. Investigators believe the three men used the proceeds to finance their drug use and living expenses.<\/p>\n
The investigation, coordinated by the Grosseto public prosecutor's office and carried out by the Follonica Carabinieri's operational and mobile patrol unit, reconstructed the criminal activities. Evidence includes witness statements, footage from public and private CCTV systems and medical records. The offences were characterised by their frequency, similar methods and advance planning with assigned roles.<\/p>\n
The alleged offences include thefts of cash from businesses, often at night after forced entry, and thefts of food from restaurants. Investigators also identified thefts of money and electronic payment cards followed by their misuse, as well as the handling of stolen e-bikes and other goods. The 26-year-old main suspect, who is already in custody for other offences, is also accused of two serious incidents: attempted extortion and a robbery in which a man from Follonica and a German tourist were physically attacked and injured.<\/p>\n
The investigating judge highlighted the alleged offenders' ruthlessness and the risk of repeated offences, making pretrial detention the only suitable measure for the three men. The woman, who allegedly helped turn the loot into money on two occasions by accepting stolen payment methods at her premises or receiving stolen goods, is now subject to daily checks. All the accused are presumed innocent.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
