A 27-year-old man originally from Bangladesh was arrested by the Carabinieri after an alleged attempted assault on a minor in Frignano, in the province of Caserta.

According to Il Mattino Caserta, the incident took place on Via Diogene in Frignano the day before the report was published on 18 September 2026. The minor was allegedly approached on the street and pushed into a bush.

The episode was interrupted by a passerby, whose intervention reportedly caused the alleged aggressor to flee.

The Carabinieri subsequently arrested the 27-year-old suspect. Investigators also reported that the man had allegedly been involved in a similar incident in nearby Casal di Principe several days earlier.

The published account does not provide the suspect's name, the minor's age, or details identifying the passerby. The precise legal charges, any prosecutorial measures, and whether the arrest has been validated were not stated.

The circumstances and outcome of the alleged earlier episode in Casal di Principe were also not detailed. The available information remains based on reported allegations, with no independent corroborating source acquired.
