The scam, the theft, the escape. They rang the door pretending to be police officers and, once inside, they robbed the owner who was also gagged and tied to the bed. A frightening moment last night for a 76 year old man living in the Laurentina area in Rome.

Around 8 pm, two fake officers, equipped with a fake badge and with a foreign accent, showed up at the door with the excuse of having to ask him some questions.

Before leaving, they gagged him and tied his wrists to the bed.
