Grosseto
Grosseto is a city in central Italy. It is the capital of the province of the same name, within the region of Tuscany.
2012 blockade
On September 15, the State Police in Rome received a confidential order to set up a roadblock at SS1 (State Highway 1), exit SS223, for the purpose of intercepting a team of Assassins who were fleeing northward from the Italian capital. The order referred to 2 men (Desmond Miles and Shaun Hastings) and 2 women (Lucy Stillman and Rebecca Crane) as dangerous fugitives who were wanted for theft and industrial espionage.
The following day, the roadblock forced the Assassins - who had hoped to reach Switzerland - to instead head for Monteriggioni, farther north in Tuscany.
