Pancrazio Chiruzzi
Pancrazio Chiruzzi, known as the 'maestro dei rapinatori italiani' (master of Italian robbers), was a notorious figure in the Italian underworld, particularly in Turin, where he became a legendary bank robber. Born in the province of Matera, he moved to Piedmont in the 1960s and began his criminal career in 1971, ultimately being arrested eleven times and serving over 30 years in prison. Known for his meticulous planning and non-violent approach, Chiruzzi earned a reputation that transcended his criminal activities. He passed away at the age of 72 due to severe pneumonia, leaving behind a legacy that was both infamous and somewhat romanticized within the context of Italian crime history.
Born on Mar 19, 1953 (72 years old)
