During the celebrations marking Napoli's Serie A title win on Friday night in Naples, several incidents required police and emergency services intervention, according to Football Italia.

While most fans celebrated peacefully, at least 39 people sustained injuries, mainly burns from pyrotechnics and fireworks. These figures come from two hospitals in the city center, but the actual number of casualties is likely higher.

Among the injured was a Belgian citizen who was stabbed in the leg for no apparent reason by two motorcyclists. Additionally, the historic Fontana del Carciofo on Piazza Trieste e Trento was damaged during the festivities.

Police detained three individuals: a 26-year-old blogger with over 200,000 TikTok followers, who rode a scooter with two passengers through a barricade, as well as two men aged 59 and 32 who attempted to drive through closed streets. Upon arresting the blogger, police seized a pistol he tried to hide in a nearby garden.
