An evening altercation near a bar in Benevento's Rione Ferrovia ended with an arrest and a three-year urban access ban after a woman was allegedly assaulted and a State Police officer was injured.
According to reports from NTR24 and LabTV, the events occurred during the evening of 3 November 2026 near a bar in Rione Ferrovia. A young foreign national allegedly assaulted a woman, causing personal injuries.
Officers from the Squadra Volanti and the Squadra Mobile intercepted the person shortly afterward. During identification and transfer to the Questura offices, the person allegedly resisted by pushing, grabbing, kicking and elbowing officers. A State Police officer was injured during that resistance.
The person was arrested in flagrante delicto in connection with the alleged assault and resistance.
Following the arrest, Benevento Questore Giovanni Leuci issued a d.ac.ur., an urban access ban. The measure lasts three years and bars the person from public establishments and entertainment venues in Rione Ferrovia, as well as from loitering near them.
What the three-year ban covers in practice is access and presence, not only entry: the person may not enter the designated public establishments and entertainment venues in the neighborhood, and may not remain in their immediate vicinity, for the full three-year period.
The criminal proceeding remains at the preliminary-investigation stage. The reports state that the person is presumed innocent until a final conviction, and the eventual judicial outcome is not yet known.
Several details have not been established in the available reports: the person's name, age and precise legal status, the full circumstances and motive of the initial altercation, and the exact medical condition of the woman and the injured officer.
