A massive brawl erupted inside the Monastir Special Reception Center, where on Thursday night between thirty and forty people (including North Africans, Afghans, and Pakistanis) engaged in a no-holds-barred fight: with bare hands, but also with pieces of wood torn from window frames, chairs and tables used as blunt objects, and broken bottles.
To restore calm, a massive deployment of law enforcement was necessary: thirteen patrols of Carabinieri and police intervened.
The toll is five young Algerians injured and transported with yellow code to Brotzu for lacerated and contused wounds, plus a sixth treated on site: none are considered serious.
