Why It Matters
The tensions in central Milan occurred during a series of protests involving demonstrators who damaged shop windows and premises in the Piazza Duomo area.
The Levi's and Under Amour stores in via Orefici, next to Cordusio, also in the Piazza Duomo area, were looted during the tensions in the center of Milan, where protesters continue to damage shop windows and premises.
They broke the window of Under Armor and also that of Levi's using the handlebars of a scooter: some of them started kicking and breaking and many others started watching and filming what was happening.
Then they entered the shops carrying out goods and threw hangers on the street.
The cordon of officers in riot gear has advanced right along the street and is throwing tear gas canisters to make the demonstrators retreat. A group is now in Piazza Cordusio. Signs of damage are visible in the area, with waste bins and scooters overturned on the ground.
Meanwhile, the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele is armored with police vehicles and officers in riot gear at the entrance onto Piazza Duomo. Camparino and Cracco are closed while Savini and Biffi are not only removing the tables and chairs but also the glass partitions and the outdoor booths.
