In the Italian towns of Pomigliano d’Arco and Mugnano, local safety groups and residents initially issued alerts regarding a rise in apartment break-ins and burglaries. Community organizations advised citizens to secure entry points, improve lighting, and maintain neighbor watch networks to combat the trend.

Following these initial warnings, reports from Pomigliano d’Arco indicated a surge in thefts and attempted burglaries specifically linked to a white Lancia Y carrying three individuals.
