Arrested for allegedly shoplifting food and vodka from Eurospin, carrying a knife: Savona's apprehension

A 42-year-old man from Millesimo was nabbed by Carabinieri in Savona yesterday afternoon, accused of aggravated theft. The flimflam artist had snatched over 120 euros worth of goods from a Eurospin store, located in the via Tissoni district.

In a cheeky move, he strolled out through an alarmed side door, bagging a haul of frozen foods, groceries, and even a bottle of vodka. Sly as a fox, he set off the alarm, drawing the attention of store staff who alerted the cops.**

A quick-thinking female worker ventured outside, spotting the thief and flagging down a nearby Carabinieri patrol. They zoomed in on a shifty character a hundred meters away, who at first tried to elude them but was no match for the law.

Alas, he dropped his ill-gotten goodies and dashed into a nearby building, but the game was up. The cops caught up to him and, after a routine check, discovered his dirty secrets. A bag contained the stolen merchandise, while the other hid a switchblade knife in his jacket. An electronic device adorned with the supermarket's logo was also found in his bag, hinting at its suspicious origins.

With footage from surveillance cameras as evidence, the man is now facing charges for his devious deeds. This goes to show that crime doesn't always pay.
