A 19-year-old footballer, who plays in Bologna Calcio in the spring, was attacked on the night between Saturday and Sunday by a group of five young people in front of a nightclub in via Maserati, on the outskirts of Bologna.

Based on what was ascertained by the police, and as reported by Resto del Carlino, the young man, who was spending an evening with friends, reported the harassing behavior of the five boys of Maghreb origin, who were not far away, to the security of the place. According to what the newspaper reports, they would have thrown ice cubes at the table of the football player who so called the surveillance officers. Then when the 19-year-old came out of the nightclub to wait for his mother to come and pick him up, the group would have reached him and attacked him.

On the spot the agents of the Volanti, of the Mobile and of the Forensics intervened to carry out the surveys, clarify the incident and identify the perpetrators.
