A five-year-old girl was kidnapped in the Catania area, in Piano di Tremestieri. The little girl was taken by a group of armed people while she was with her mother in the car , she will turn five in July. Mom had recently gone to pick her up from kindergarten.

The complaint was presented by the woman to the police of the Tenenza di Mascalucia. The kidnapping was confirmed by the Public Prosecutor of Catania , which opened an investigation into the facts by delegating the investigation to the men of the weapon.

The news circulates on social media, where it has gone viral, accompanied by the details of the kidnapped child and a photo.

The post reads that "Piano Tremestieri area was kidnapped around 3 pm" and that "the probable perpetrators" would be " three hooded people in a car " of which "model, color and license plate is unknown".

According to rumors, the carabinieri are carrying out checks on an abandoned car in Tremestieri .

Prosecutor Carmelo Zuccaro spoke of "a delicate moment of the investigation which does not allow further information to be provided".

Investigators exclude that the kidnapping is "the work of organized crime ", which historically does not want kidnappings and sensational gestures in the territory in which it operates. Nor that it is "connected to a ransom request" : the family does not have economic problems, but neither does it have sufficient availability to justify an extortionate kidnapping.
