The carabinieri arrive in force, with machine guns and bulletproof vests , together with the men of the state police and the local police. A Senegalese man found with a revolver is arrested while a Nigerian, considered the victim, will be taken together with the North African to the barracks. However, no one was injured by the bullets, even though the risk was great.
