Two burglars who tied up and
brutally beat a 78-year-old pensioner before robbing his home in
Sardinia in October took numerous selfies inside the property,
police said Tuesday.
The selfies of the burglars wearing ski masks and gloves
helped police nail down charges against the pair, prosecutors
said.
The victim, Pinuccio Uccheddu, was treated in hospital after
the robbery in southwest Sardinia.
The burglars, Gian Marco Garau from Nuxis and Mirko Manca
from Villaperuccio, have been charged with grievous bodily harm
and robbery and remanded in custody.
A third member of the gang, a 17-year-old minor who cannot be
named because of his age, has been sent to a home.
