A tourist scaled the baths at
Pompeii on Ferragosto to take photos of the ancient Roman site.
But she was photographed in turn and the superintendency has
opened a probe, Il Mattino newspaper reported Monday.
Officials are trying to establish the identity, age, and
nationality of the woman.
They said she would be charged with breaching a ban on climbing
onto monuments or even sitting on them.
The case has sparked a social-media storm.
The city was buried by an eruption from Vesuvius in 79 AD.
Tourists are even banned form touching its monuments.
