Six men between the ages of 26 and
40 have been cited for a brawl that erupted on a terrace bar in
one of Capri's most luxurious hotels on Friday night, sources
said Sunday.
The incident happened at the Hotel Quisisana, a plush
establishment on the iconic island in the Bay of Naples.
Police said the scuffle probably started after one of the men
paid one compliment too many to a tourist's girlfriend.
The terrace bar at the five-star hotel was transformed into a
Wild West saloon with chairs flying everywhere, witnesses said.
The six are Campanian tourists including professionals and
students.
They are likely to be served DASPO urban bans prohibiting them
from returning to Capri, police said.
"It was a bad incident, of misbehaviour and incivility but we
must not generalize," said Capri Mayor Marino Lembo, stressing
that most of the island's night life was peaceful.
