'Robin Hood' nabbed

An Italian Robin Hood who stole from a bank and gave the money to the Church has been turned in by clergymen.

The thief took £8,000 in a bank robbery in Cagliari, but later went to a church where he handed over a sack full of cash to a priest and ran off.

But father Francesco Matta called police, who realised the notes were stolen from the serial numbers.

Officers tracked down and arrested the Robin Hood, using a description given by the priest.
