He hit a passerby in via Roma in the face and attempted to take away his purse . To defend the victim, a 45-year-old, three young people from Cagliari who were walking nearby intervened : they pushed the robber away, managing to prevent him from taking away the loot.

This happened last night in Cagliari in front of the port . The Carabinieri of the Radiomobile and the soldiers of the Sant'Avendrace station, after having collected information and a description of the attacker, tracked him down nearby.

The man, a 32-year-old of Algerian origin residing in Quartu , gave no indication of his personal details and immediately assumed an aggressive attitude. He was taken to the service car but there was no way to calm him down: he kicked the glass of the car , damaging the door handle. In the barracks, the man was later found in possession of a razor blade hidden in his trousers and subjected to seizure.

In consideration of the fact that the 32-year-old was in the throes of an uncontrollable hysterical crisis , 118 personnel were called in: the attacker was then transported to the psychiatry department of the Santissima Trinità hospital in Cagliari .

For the 32-year-old, the complaint was made on charges of attempted robbery, resistance to a public official and for damage and unjustified carrying of objects capable of offending.
