A lot happened on Saturday night during the celebration of the Alpines in the seaside resort of Rimini, on the Adriatic; the band played, people danced in the streets and on the boardwalk, grappa, beer and wine flowed freely. And suddenly Adriana, 27, found herself surrounded by eight to ten men in Piazza Kennedy, all over 50. They dragged her in front of a white haired man, who pushed aside her jacket and bra and grabbed her breasts. “I shot back and yelled ‘enough is enough’, then I yelled, but the men just laughed. Nobody helped me, just my girlfriend. I felt humiliated, I was treated as if I were a commodity in the supermarket, an object.” , Adriana reported later in the newspaper “La Stampa”. All attackers would wear the typical Alpini hat, decorated with a feather.
