The attempted theft on Tiepolo Street is just the latest episode in a series of crimes that are putting the security of residents and businesses in Desenzano under strain. The spread of reports through social media, as in the case of the Facebook group “Our Desenzano…”, has become an effective way to inform the community and try to prevent further incidents.
Despite the efforts of law enforcement, thefts or attempted thefts continue to be a daily occurrence. CCTV cameras have proven to be a valuable tool in identifying criminals and obtaining concrete evidence to present to the relevant authorities. However, not everyone has access to these technologies, leaving many homes and businesses vulnerable to thieves.
The incident on Tiepolo Street occurred around 2 am when many residents were still asleep. The quick response of the owners in turning on the lights prevented worse consequences, but this does not diminish the feeling of insecurity that remains high.
