Two minors were noticed and subsequently stopped by Carabinieri from the Rome Monte Mario station while riding a Honda SH 150 scooter on Via Cesare Lumbroso in the Monte Mario area. The military police were conducting routine territorial checks at the time.
A thorough inspection revealed the scooter had been reported stolen two days earlier by its owner. The vehicle was therefore impounded and later returned to her.
The two 16-year-old Roman students, with no prior police record, were reported at liberty for the crime of joint receiving of stolen goods. The minors were subsequently handed over to their parents.
