Vandalism and safety concerns reported in Alghero and Ferrara
Following Halloween celebrations, reports of vandalism and public disorder have emerged in Alghero, Italy. Local officials and residents noted significant damage to public spaces, including destroyed flowerbeds and widespread litter, such as glass and plastic bottles, near local nightlife areas. Councilwoman Giovanna Caria has called for increased surveillance, more frequent police presence, and better management of high-traffic commercial zones to prevent such incidents.
In Ferrara, Italy, local councilwoman Marzia Marchi has filed an inquiry regarding the Horrorland event. The inquiry follows reports of alleged alcohol poisoning among minors during the Halloween festivities. Marchi is seeking clarification on the municipal financial support provided to the event organizers and the adequacy of safety controls and alcohol administration oversight, noting that the municipality provided 60,000 euros in direct contributions for the 2025 edition.
