The four incidents

Three home burglaries successfully carried out and a fourth failed attempt over the course of a single evening. This is the sequence recorded in Dumenza on Friday 25 September, where several homes were targeted by unknown perpetrators.

On via Santuario, the thieves managed to enter a home and took 600 euros in cash. Another theft was reported on via Fiume: in this case too, the criminals managed to enter a house and, after searching for valuables, took gold.

A third theft was committed in a home on via Dante. In this case, the haul consisted of gold and money, taken before the perpetrators managed to get away and disappear without a trace.

The situation was different on via XX Settembre. The unknown individuals heard the owners inside the home and decided to flee. The theft was not completed, but in this incident too the perpetrators managed to disappear without a trace.

The incidents affected four streets in the small municipality north of Varese. In three homes the theft was completed, while in the fourth case the attempt was interrupted after the owners were heard inside the house. The people concerned reported the incidents to the Carabinieri of the Dumenza Station.

Operational details

The targeted homes

The reconstruction of the cases begins on via Santuario, where the reported haul was 600 euros in cash. On via Fiume, by contrast, the perpetrators searched for valuables inside the home and took gold.

The third incident, on via Dante, involved a haul consisting of gold and money. The perpetrators managed to get away after taking whatever they found in the home, disappearing without a trace. On via XX Settembre, the outcome was different: the presence of the owners prompted the unknown individuals to flee before the theft could be completed.

Hauls and outcomes

The string of incidents is described as unfortunately record-breaking for the small municipality. The figure concerns the concentration of the incidents: three completed thefts and a fourth attempted break-in on the same evening. The homes are located on different streets, but all within the territory of Dumenza.

The evening thus resulted in four reports with two distinct outcomes. On the one hand, the thieves managed to enter three homes and steal cash, gold, or both. On the other, the attempt on via XX Settembre ended when the unknown individuals heard the residents. After fleeing, the perpetrators of the three completed thefts also disappeared without a trace.

The available information links the individual incidents to their respective addresses: via Santuario for the 600 euros, via Fiume for the gold, via Dante for gold and money, via XX Settembre for the failed attempt. The Dumenza Carabinieri Station is now focusing its investigations on this sequence.

Key points

The Carabinieri investigation

Following reports from the people concerned, the Carabinieri of the Dumenza Station are carrying out investigations to reconstruct what happened and try to identify those responsible for the thefts.

The investigators' work concerns the sequence recorded on the evening of Friday 25 September, with three completed thefts and a fourth attempt that was not carried through. The checks concern the homes indicated on Via Santuario, Via Fiume, Via Dante and Via XX Settembre, where the incidents described occurred.

For the failed break-in, the reported circumstance is the presence of the owners inside the house. After hearing them, the unknown individuals decided to flee. In the other three cases, however, the perpetrators managed to enter the homes, take the items mentioned and leave without a trace.

The request to residents

The appeal to the public is to report to the Carabinieri any suspicious people or cars noticed on Friday evening in the areas concerned. The request concerns not only the streets where the homes were targeted, but more generally the territory of Dumenza.

Any detail could prove useful to the investigation. For this reason, both observations possibly made in the areas of Via Santuario, Via Fiume, Via Dante and Via XX Settembre, and those collected in other areas of the municipality on the same evening, are being recalled.

Residents' reports add to those already submitted by the people affected by the thefts. The investigations by the Carabinieri of the local Station will reconstruct what happened and try to identify those responsible for the sequence of incidents recorded in Dumenza.
