ROME (Reuters) - Two Italian prisoners released under a national pardon celebrated their freedom with such gusto in a bar that they were back inside within five hours after getting into a fight with police.
Freed from Macomer jail on the island of Sardinia under a nationwide pardon to relieve prison overcrowding, Massimiliano Formula, 32, and Raimondo Muntoni, 28, were arrested for punching police who asked to see their papers, police said.
They now await a new trial.
