Czechs arrest Italian Mafia boss
A fugitive Italian Mafia boss who has been on the run for six years has been arrested in the Czech Republic. 
Luigi Putrone was arrested by Czech police as he ran errands
Police in Prague said Luigi Putrone had probably been living in the Czech Republic for several years since going on the run in the late 1990s.
An Italian court has already sentenced him in absentia to life imprisonment for murders and Mafia-related crimes.
Mr Putrone, 44, from Agrigento in Sicily, was listed among Italy's top 30 most wanted Mafia bosses.
Italian police had alerted their Czech colleagues that Mr Putrone may be in the country.
