The young man was sued both for injuries and for interruption of public service. The attack took place on the bus in the area of ​​Via Boccea in Rome.

The eight young people, all Italians and peers, after the attack on the driver fled, four aboard a taxi and four on foot.

On the spot, around midnight, the Police Steering Wheels arrived and, having heard the witnesses present, they immediately set about looking for the boys in the Trastevere area and Campo de 'Fiori.

Within half an hour the agents tracked down the young men as they walked along the Tiber Tiber. The policemen recognized the attacker of the Atac driver, the 17-year-old, who later admitted the fact, from the witnesses' descriptions and blocked him. Even the other boys who were with him have been identified and their positions are being examined by the Police of the Aurelio Commissariat who are trying to reconstruct the exact dynamics of the facts.

From the first elements that emerged it would have been the 17 year old himself, responsible for the attack on the driver who ended up in hospital with a broken nasal septum, to have activated the emergency lever.

According to the reconstruction of the facts, while the public bus traveled via Boccea, the young man operated the emergency lever. The driver Atac stopped the vehicle to go and reset the door but as soon as he left the cabin he was attacked by the pack and beaten. A passenger immediately called the law enforcement agencies. The driver was rescued by 118 and admitted to the Policlinico Gemelli, where the doctors reported the fracture of the nasal septum, with a 30-day prognosis.

The condemnation of the aggression by both the transport company and the political world was unanimous, and by the mayor of Rome, Virginia Raggi.
