Another assault on a armored car in Sardinia , another firefight and a trail of blood along the roads of the island.
This time it happened in Giave , on the Statale 131 , but in the past it had happened in Siliqua , Bonorva , Sassari , still on the 131 between Nuoro and Olbia , along the road that connects Orani and Orotelli , and then the assault on the Mondialpol of Sassari, yielded to the bandits as much as 11 million euros.
In Siliqua , on May 31, 2022, the assault had failed , with a dynamic similar to the current one : shots at the armored vehicle and cars on fire, the criminals on the run. A Mondialpol armored car was targeted, with the bandits who first stopped the vehicle by placing two cars as obstacles on the roadway, and then opened fire wildly .
We need to go further back, to 2015, for a similar assault on the 131 , this time in Bonorva . The bandits blocked the road at the crossroads for Bolotana with a quarry truck and two cars, one of which was on fire. They fired Kalashnikovs with minor wounds against a vigilante, who was thrown to the ground. The loot is then huge: half a million euros , with the criminals quickly disappearing in the direction of Cagliari.
And there is perhaps the same hand when, in 2016, the fort-headquarters of the Mondialpol in Sassari was attacked by a group of about ten criminals. The bandits arrive on the spot with a bulldozer loaded onto a truck, break through the boundary wall and break into the building. Then the shootout between the criminal group and the security guards, and miraculously no one is injured. The bandits flee.
