Italian police are reportedly on the hunt for a Mickey Mouse mascot who has been terrorising tourists in Naples.

Witnesses say the mascot hangs around popular tourist spots, encourages people to take photos with him, and demands payment after. 

“According to a local MP… Mickey asks for money and if they refuse, he makes threats and on at least one occasion, has pulled out a knife… Not great for tourism PR.”
