Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II vandalized defaced
Vita gazette – The vandals raised their vicious hands to the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. The trevandals defaced the pediment with a large inscription visible from the Piazza del Duomo.
The Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan was vandalised by some people who defaced the pediment with a large inscription visible from the Piazza del Duomo. In a video, the writers who then fled are seen in action. The fire brigade lit up the gallery with photoelectric lights but the perpetrators, three boys, escaped from the roofs.
Three, all dressed in black. “Armed” with spray cans. Madness on Monday evening in Piazza Duomo in Milan, where three writers vandalised the top of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, the parlour of the Milanese capital. The three, as shown in the video posted on the Milanobelladadio Instagram page, left their signatures just above the entrance vault of the Gallery with green and black paint. Local police and firefighters were on site, who then climbed up to the top with a ladder truck to check the damage. The blitz of the writers was staged in front of numerous passers-by, who welcomed their vandal raid with boos.
In the morning, the Local Police reported that “at 10.28 pm, agents from the Duomo unit of the local police saw three boys on the facade of the gallery doing graffiti, they sounded the alarm and immediately went up, but in the meantime, the three had escaped into the maze of the roofs.” The vandals would have arrived from a bar with an adjacent terrace at the ledge and probably escaped using a service staircase. The investigations are the responsibility of the local police.
Salvini “Endless shame, hooligans will be punished.”
“Endless shame – commented the deputy prime minister and transport minister Matteo Salvini on social media -. We will do everything to get the police to catch these thugs, who must have a lesson they will remember for a lifetime, based on prison terms, fines and social services for the disabled and older people. And if they are minors, let mom and dad pay, obviously a little distracted.”
The Pd also intervened in the case. “Anger and disgust. This is Milan’s sentiment at the sight of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II hit by these vandals – thundered Michele Albiani, municipal councillor of the Democratic Party and president of the Security Commission -. The perpetrators of this insult to the whole city must be caught and punished. At the same time, one wonders how they managed to get up there to make that abomination. Whoever allowed what happened, in the same way as the vandals, must be punished exemplary.”
“I hope that the images of the many cameras will be viewed as soon as possible to identify those responsible for the massacre – added Alessandro De Chirico, leader of the Forza Italia group at Palazzo Marino -. They must pay the cost of cleaning the Gallery down to the last penny. If they are foreigners, they should be given the urban Daspo if Italians are entrusted to social services to make themselves useful to the community. There seems never to be an end to the worst, society is taking a nasty turn, and there is little to hope for from this youth, unfortunately. After the continuous episodes of vandalism, I hope the Government will severely exacerbate crimes against historical and cultural heritage.”
