20min.ch (French) —

Two teenagers from Chiasso, Switzerland, were arrested in Milan for looting during weekend riots, with Italian authorities reporting 330 detentions total. The 17- and 18-year-old boys face charges of destruction and pillaging. The older suspect told investigators he traveled to Milan after seeing a protest call on social media, then entered a broken Decathlon storefront and stole a pair of shoes before being caught. The judge noted the older teen wore black clothing, a balaclava, and a cap, describing his "resolutely violent and insurrectional profile" and lack of remorse. He remains jailed in San Vittore prison; no details were released about the minor.
