Elderly Cruise Passengers Accused of Stealing €1,000 Ring
An elderly Chilean couple, aged 77 and 87, has been formally charged by Italian authorities after allegedly stealing a €1,000 ring from a jewelry store in Messina before boarding the cruise ship Celebrity Constellation bound for Naples.
According to police last Sunday the couple entered a local jewelry shop and asked to try on a high-value ring. Taking advantage of the distraction by the shop owner, they allegedly pocketed the item and quietly left the store.
