(ANSA) - Naples, April 6 - A man swallowed a fake 100-euro banknote Wednesday in a vain bid to evade arrest.
    The man entered a dental clinic in Pozzuoli near Naples and asked the secretary to change the note which he said he had been given in his shop, under the clinic.
    The woman refused after the banknote tested false and two off-duty policeman who had seen what happened followed the man into the street.
    He promptly put the note into his mouth and, to give himself time to swallow it, started a scuffle with the policemen.
    He was arrested.
