Electric cables stolen from Calatafimi sports facility lighting towers.
Explain briefly the following article:
Another theft of electrical cables in Calatafimi Segesta. The news was reported by the mayor Francesco Gruppuso. This time the criminals targeted the sports facility in contrada Sasi. The theft took place during the Easter holidays and presumably during the night. The electrical cables of the stadium’s floodlight towers were cut and stolen, which effectively ensure the nighttime use of the sports facility. The report has already been filed with the Carabinieri station in Calatafimi Segesta and the damage amount has been estimated at around 10 thousand euros.
Unfortunately, the restoration works will not be immediate, but it is believed that the problem can be solved by including the expense in the financing of over 100 thousand euros obtained from the Region for the safety and usability of the facility in the coming months. “It is necessary for our city to have a video surveillance system – says Mayor Gruppuso – the municipal council approved the project in recent weeks and requested over 300 thousand euros in funding from the Ministry of the Interior. The project – continues Gruppuso – includes several cameras with license plate recognition and also territorial cameras for firefighting, we hope that the third attempt will result in the decree which also involves a 33% financial contribution from the municipal coffers in order to obtain a very high score in the ranking.”
Then the mayor’s call for citizens to contact the authorities. In short, if anyone has seen any suspicious activity that could lead to the identification of the perpetrators of the crime, they should come forward. In recent months, the city of Calatafimi had been targeted by copper thieves, and parts of the city and the extra-urban area of contrada Sasi were left in the dark.
