US Student Sexually Molested in Firenze

Last night a 23-year old American college student -- in Florence to learn la lingua italiana -- was sexually molested in Piazza Santa Croce. She is currently recovering in a hospital in Careggi, a neighborhood in northwest Florence. The attacker has not been apprehended, and a description not released.

Yesterday, Anna Falchi, one of Italy's biggest actresses, revealed that when she was 18, on the streets of Rome, an extracomunitario -- illegal immigrant -- tried to rape her but she defended herself by slipping off one of her high heels, hitting the attacker with its sharp heel, and breaking free. She immediately reported the incident to the police, but never heard from them again.
