Ponticelli is once again the scene of a Camorra war. After months of apparent truce, the clans have entered a new phase of fibrillation, as demonstrated by recent bloody events.

The latest episode is the ambush of Antonio Meo, 51 years old believed to be close to the De Miccos. According to investigators, it was a response to the investment of two young people close to the group of "block 17". The injured person is the brother of Vincenzo killed by the killers of the Sarno clan 35 years ago in the famous Sayonara bar massacre.

The new Camorra war in Ponticelli sees two opposing factions: on one side the De Miccos, allies of the Mazzarellas, on the other a coalition of five groups: the newly formed formation based in the De Gasperi district, the D'Amico “Fraulella”, the De Luca Bossas, the Cascellas and the Minichinis.

The goal of this alliance is to reduce the power of the “Bodo” in the neighborhood, reducing their areas of influence. Tensions had already emerged in recent months with “stese”, intimidations and bombs.

The expansion of the De Miccos' spheres of influence would be at the basis of the new phase of conflict. This penetration has not escaped the enemies of the federation of Camorra families of Ponticelli and San Giovanni a Teduccio, who have decided to react.

Investigations are underway to identify those responsible for the latest bloody events and to reconstruct the dynamics of the new Camorra war in Ponticelli.

The situation in the neighborhood is worrying and the population is terrified. Law enforcement is monitoring the situation and is working to prevent further violence.
