The escape by car, then on foot, the scuffle with the agents, a new attempt to get away: in the end Riccardo Matta was blocked by the policemen in Sant'Elia, in Cagliari . But his troubles were just beginning: the search in his garage allowed investigators to recover almost two kilos of drugs including marijuana, hashish and cocaine.
The eventful episode dates back to Tuesday night. The young man was in a car with a friend. At the sight of the police patrol, the car drove away . Everything useless. The officers gave chase. Then the stop. The driver remained on board. The other got out and fled on foot. Even this attempt didn't help: reached by the policemen he reacted with kicks and punches, once again managing to get away and then be definitively tracked down and arrested.
Thus began the problems for Riccardo Matta: the police agents searched the young man's garage , finding one kilo and 400 grams of marijuana, three ounces of hashish and one of cocaine. Matta was arrested and at the disposal of the prosecutor on duty, Enrico Lussu, accompanied to prison to await validation. His friend was reported as a consumer and his position on the matter is still being examined by the investigators.
