On Friday a patrol from the Aliquota Radiomobile of the Amelia company, together with 118 paramedics, was sent to a home in the Amerino area after a woman called NUE 112 over a fierce quarrel with her son, who was in a state of strong agitation.[1] During the intervention the minor spontaneously handed over to officers just under 18 grams of hashish, already split into four wrappers ready for sale, and two fully working electronic precision scales, all kept in his bedroom.[1]

The follow-up personal and home searches found nothing more.[1] On the order of the duty prosecutor at the Juvenile Prosecutor’s Office in Perugia, the minor was brought to a directissima validation hearing at the Juvenile Court in the provincial capital; the judge confirmed the arrest and applied the precautionary measure of house arrest, allowing him to continue attending school provided he was accompanied by his parents.[1] The ANSA wire report confirms the court outcome: at the end of the directissima validation hearing the judge confirmed the arrest and applied the precautionary measure of house arrest on the sixteen-year-old, letting him keep attending school as long as he was accompanied by his parents.[2]
