Twentytwo years ago four young guys on bikes tried to rob us at a red light on Via Roma (Toledo) but failed because the car door was broken and could only be opened from the inside. It's a rather long story that I won't bother to describe, the bottom line is that the local Camorra boss where we were living (close to the funicolare) allowed me to always park my car for free in all my (then frequent) visits to Naples as a... compensation; one of the best "gifts' I ever received. Don Peppe, a funny and nice guy, died in he turn of the century in his bed (unusual for a camorrista). Before and after this incident I never had any problem in Naples.
