City announces €17 million plan to fill 50,000 potholes in Rome.

Rome prosecutors have opened an investigation into the capital's potholes following complaints from consumer associations, according to Italian news agency ANSA.

Rome's potholes have become the subject of recent irony on social media, featuring everything from fishermen to crocodiles.
