Tourist group has passports, luggage stolen after arriving in Rome

A group of Chinese tourists whose luggage and passports were stolen from a bus in Rome just hours after arriving in the Italian capital have yet to decide whether to continue their vacation, according to Ctrip, the online agency they used to book the trip.

Ctrip said on Tuesday it is still waiting for the result of an investigation by the Italian police.

"The group's tour guide immediately reported the theft to the police, but we haven't heard of any progress in the investigation," said Gao Jie, public relations manager of Ctrip.
