He threatened a woman with a gun in Sassari and was arrested . State police recently arrested a 55-year-old man charged with aggravated menacing, illegal possession of a concealed weapon , and possession of narcotics with intent to distribute.

The officers intervened around 2.15 am after a call to 112. A woman claimed to have been threatened by a person she knew near a private club in the Latte Dolce neighbourhood .

The man was reportedly in a car nearby and was carrying a firearm. Arriving on the scene, patrol officers quickly located the man, finding a 53-cm wooden stick lying on the rear floor mat, and a pistol with a cocked hammer and a magazine containing five rounds , hidden under the driver's side of the car. Subsequent investigations determined that the weapon had been modified with a high-precision barrel and internal rifling to fire 6.35 Browning ammunition, essentially making it a clandestine weapon.
The search of the suspect's home led to the discovery and seizure of a cannabis sativa plant approximately 60 cm tall growing on the balcony , a package containing approximately 120 grams of cannabis, and a precision scale. The man was arrested and taken to Bancali prison to await a validation hearing.
