Finto prete chiedeva le offerte, allontanato da Scicli

For days, the fake priest has been spreading panic in the families of the Jungi neighborhood in Scicli. There are no reports against him, but the carabinieri and local police have invited him to leave the city.

The man is from Zafferana Etnea, and he always had a folder in hand and asked for donations, moving constantly from the city center to the outskirts, presenting himself in the doorways of houses and apartment buildings to ask for money. The identikit and photos taken from behind the blinds of windows allowed the authorities to track him down. He has been removed from Scicli.
