A dinner fit for true gourmets: fresh fish, fine wines, local specialties. But when it came time to pay the bill, the two tourists, full and satisfied, rose from the table and disappeared into thin air, leaving the restaurateur with the bill in his hand.

The incident occurred a few days ago at a well-known restaurant in the center of Alghero. The two customers took advantage of a moment of distraction from the staff to sneak out without paying.

The police intervened within minutes and, with the help of witness statements and surveillance camera footage, the "account swindlers" were identified and reported for fraudulent insolvency (Article 641 of the Criminal Code).

A prank that can cost up to two years in prison.
