This is the best summary I could come up with:


One of Italy's most dangerous fugitives has been caught in Greece after a photo of him cheering on his football team gave away his whereabouts.

Vincenzo La Porta, 60, is thought to have close ties to the Camorra organised crime gang in Naples.

Police finally arrested him on Friday while he was riding his moped on the Greek island of Corfu and he is now currently in a jail awaiting extradition to Italy.

The authorities were relentless in their pursuit of La Porta, tracking his financial and online movements closely and "waited for him to make a misstep".

The police spotted him in a photo outside a Corfu restaurant among Napoli fans donning a baseball cap and waving the team's sky blue and white colours.

In January, this year, an Italian mafia boss who was on the run for decades was arrested after a Google Maps sighting.
