In Bergamo, a man was arrested for breaking into a camper with foreign plates. In Capezzano, a motorhome driver damaged a parked car and fled, but was identified by police.

Two incidents involving campers and motorhomes have occurred in Italy.

Bergamo: attempted theft from camper

On June 23, on Viale Papa Giovanni XXIII in Bergamo, police arrested a man who broke a window of a parked camper with foreign plates and tried to enter. The suspect is a Moroccan citizen born in 1996, homeless, and had already been arrested in May for similar crimes. The court imposed a ban on residing in Bergamo and its province, and consented to his deportation.

Capezzano: hit-and-run with motorhome

In Capezzano, a motorhome driver collided with a parked car and fled the scene. Police identified the perpetrator — a 40-year-old tourist from Milan vacationing in Versilia — using surveillance cameras and a swift investigation. The offender was fined and subjected to measures under the Highway Code.
