Maddaloni, selfie on the wall of Palazzo Carafa: the mayor closes the gates

Selfie on the wall of Palazzo Carafa four meters high, the mayor of Maddaloni: "check all accesses and close all gates to access the suspended or overhanging areas of the ducal palace"
The thrill and the unusual setting are the ingredients to get more likes. The more the difficulty level of the selfie increases, the more the appreciation grows. Now, the municipality is worried about the rush to take the most dangerous or sensational selfie possible. The emulation effect is feared.

Standing or sitting on the walls, even at four meters high, all a few meters from the town hall on Via San Francesco d'Assisi but overhanging the perimeter areas of the Carafa ducal palace as well as vertically on the pedestrian access below. This is what happens every afternoon.

Mayor De Filippo:

First act, check all accesses and close all passages to access the suspended or overhanging areas of the ducal palace. Second measure: all areas of the municipal villa in Piazza della Pace that have been vandalized and access to dangerous points have been closed and prohibited.

In order to protect urban decorum, an invitation was launched to private individuals to close and secure access points. “Let's not create alarmism concludes De Filippo – but prevention. Naturally, we ask for everyone's collaboration, inviting responsible behavior and common sense." The Municipal Police will monitor in a very discreet manner.
