Italian police said they had found a fitting temporary home for an accused jewellery robber whose priestly disguise failed to help him slip past their dragnet.
義大利警方說，他們為一名被控珠寶搶匪找到一個合適的暫時居所，這名搶匪佯裝成神職人員，但無助他逃過警方的法網。
Police said they tracked down and arrested the 37-year-old male suspect by reviewing closed circuit television footage around Via del Corso and Via Condotti, the swanky shopping district near the Spanish Steps, after a July 4th hold-up at one of Rome’s most prestigious jewellery shops.
警方說，7月4日羅馬一家最知名珠寶商店發生搶案後，他們過濾科索大道、康多提大道周邊監視器畫面，查出並逮捕這名37歲男性嫌犯。該區鄰近「西班牙階梯」，是時髦購物區。
Video footage released by Italian police showed a man dressed in the floor-length black cassock and round, wide brimmed black hat commonly worn by priests of the Roman Catholic Church until the 1960s and still favoured by traditionalists.
義大利警方公布的監視器畫面顯示，一名男子穿著及地黑長袍、戴黑色圓寬邊帽，這是一種1960年代以前常見於羅馬天主教會神職人員、今日仍為傳統派人士所喜愛的帽子。
The footage showed the man was carrying a shopping bag and moving confidently through a crowd of shoppers after the heist, in which two employees were locked in a bathroom.
影片顯示，這名男子行搶後提著一個購物袋，大膽地穿過購物人群離去，被劫商店的兩名店員被鎖在洗手間。
Police have detained the suspect in the Queen of Heaven jail on the Tiber River not far from the pope’s Vatican headquarters.
警方已將這名嫌犯拘禁在台伯河畔的天后監獄，就離教宗的梵蒂岡總部不遠。
