A 13-year-old Egyptian boy who
became a hero by phoning police from a hijacked bus near Milan
Wednesday told ANSA Thursday he wanted to be a Carabiniere when
he grows up.
"When I grow up I would like to be a Carabiniere," said Ramy
Shehata, who with a schoolmate phoned police after bus driver
Ousseynou Sy hijacked the vehicle at Crema near Cremona and
doused it with petrol before torching it after police had helped
51 kids out of the back window at San Donato Milanese near
Milan.
Ramy's father said earlier he would like to see his son get
Italian citizenship, and Interior Minister Matteo Salvini said
he would consider the request.
