ROME: A couple of German tourists were ordered to leave Venice on Friday for brewing coffee at the foot of the famous Rialto bridge.
The pair were marched to a police station after a local resident reported them to the authorities, the city council said. "Venice must be respected, and bad-mannered people who think they can come here and do what they want must understand that, thanks to local police, they will be caught, punished and expelled," Venice Mayor Luigi Brugnaro said."From now on, we will also communicate the identities of those subject to a removal order to their embassies and consulates," he added in a statement.
