Carabinieri police have nabbed
seven members of a gang of youths that alleged conducted 17
robberies near Naples in October and November last year,
including four minors, sources said Tuesday.
Most of the victims of the robberies were the same age as the
youths who allegedly staged them at bars and railway stations in
the province of Naples.
They allegedly used toys guns to threaten the victims and
force them to hand over their cell phones.
Two members of the gang were arrested late in November.
The four minors have been taken to a detention centre, while
the other three are in Poggioreale prison, the sources said.
