Xinhua Times, December 9, according to PRATO news website on December 6: A thrilling thing happened in VIA SANT’ANTONIO late yesterday night. After a 22-year-old Nigerian youth negotiated a price with a Chinese prostitute for a one-time transaction of 30 yuan, he asked the woman to spend the night at her house because there was no other place to stay. After being rejected by the 51-year-old Chinese woman, the two sides had a brief quarrel, during which two of the woman’s compatriots came to help. One of them held a knife and cut the Nigerian’s hand. The young man resisted and bit one of the Chinese. Finally, the arrival of the police calmed down the situation. The two injured people – the Nigerian and the 44-year-old Chinese – were treated by 118 and confirmed to have recovered in 6 and 5 days respectively. The Chinese man holding the knife ran away before the police arrived. The Nigerian was confirmed to have legal status because he held a refugee residence permit, while the 44-year-old Chinese was shown to have been refused legalization procedures, so administrative procedures were initiated and he would eventually be expelled from Italy. —Compiled by Italian Chinatown website alexzou |
