He attempted to kidnap a one-and-a-half-year-old girl from a supermarket and, in an attempt to tear her from her mother's arms, broke her leg . It happened yesterday in Bergamo , where a 37-year-old Romanian man, homeless and with no criminal record, was arrested today by the State Police for the attempted kidnapping of the little girl.
The incident occurred at 1 p.m., at the Esselunga supermarket on Via Corridoni: the little girl and her parents were leaving when they encountered the Romanian man at the door, who grabbed the little girl by the legs and tried to carry her away . The mother held her back, and the man was immediately subdued by her father and the supermarket employees.
Viewing the footage from the cameras allowed the police to reconstruct the events, and the man was arrested and is now in prison.
