They arrived from the sea with a powerful rubber dinghy , disembarking at the Alba Chiara , the bathhouse on the beach of Quartu undergoing restoration.
Then they raided taps, pipes and sinks still to be assembled and tried to escape: however, they were noticed by the security guard while the alarm system was filming them.
So they got rid of the stolen goods, abandoned on the beach , and got back on the big dinghy, still moving away by sea.
A truly daring attempted theft, thwarted as mentioned by the guard and by the particularly sophisticated video surveillance system.
The story is now being dealt with by the Cagliari Police Headquarters which has launched the investigation into the sensational assault by sea. There is talk of arrests . No confirmation. Developments are expected in the next few hours.
