A couple from Carbonia - he 42 and she 40 - arrested by the police on charges of aggravated theft and receiving stolen goods .

The two were stopped by policemen from the local police station's flying squad after being surprised with unpaid merchandise stolen from a downtown clothing store.

Once blocked, they were checked and inside a bag specially shielded with aluminum foil to evade the anti-theft systems, designer t-shirts were found with the tags still on.

Not only that: from their car other items of clothing came out of which the couple was unable to provide any explanation, probably also the proceeds of theft.

The three T-shirts, worth over 200 euros , were returned to the owner of the shop, while the two 40-year-olds, at the end of the investigations, ended up in handcuffs , awaiting the direct trial .
