Boat thieves in action in the night between Monday and Tuesday in Santa Teresa di Riva. Unknown persons acted at night by stealing two dinghies moored at sea, managing to force the ignition system and walk away in the dark. A gps detection system was installed on both devices and one of the two was activated allowing the owner to trace it in the following hours at the small port of Ognina, in Catania, where the other vessel was also located. The State Police intervened at the Catania pier after the report of the private individual and yesterday the thefts were reported to the Carabinieri station of Santa Teresa di Riva.
