A 32-year-old man from the Capital is being prosecuted for robbery. He was detained by the police in the Riscani park while showing suspicious behavior. The man had a medical mask and a gun when the police detained him.

Following investigations, the individual committed two robberies in the Ciocana sector, at the end of last month. The first case occurred in a boutique, threatening the 65-year-old sales woman with a weapon. The man asked her to give him all the money she has.

In the second case the individual entered a credit office, threatening the 34-year-old inspector, from where he stole 2185 lei.
