Two American teens were arrested on Saturday in Rome accused of the stabbing murder of Italian military police officer Mario Cerciello Rega. The picture of Natale-Hjorth with head bowed and eyes covered by a blue blindfold at a police station started circulating on the Internet on Saturday and was published by several Italian newspapers on Sunday.“The general command of the Carabinieri disassociate themselves from the release and disclosure of photos of persons arrested for the murder of Mario Cerciello Rega,” they said in a statement late on Saturday.
