shoplifted food worth five euros and 20 cents in a Florence
supermarket in 2006 has been sentenced to two months in jail in
Bologna for the event, 17 years later, local media reported

The man, who has a record for petty crime, never got away with
the food as police soon caught him.
He has been in Bologna's Dozza Prison for a week.
