Authorities in Abruzzo step in to stop Carrito the Marsican bear’s increasingly brazen behaviour
Marina Valentini is still bewildered as she surveys the scene of the crime, pointing to the floor of her bakery in Roccaraso, a small mountain town and ski resort in Italy’s Abruzzo region, where the crumbs of her freshly made biscuits were scattered.
