Eventually he re-emerged with Minichiello, who got into the back seat of Guli's Alfa Romeo, pointed his carbine and asked him in Neapolitan-accented Italian to drive away. Only three miles out of Rome, Minichiello ordered Guli from the car and then drove on a short distance before jumping out and heading across the fields.
