Capocasa stated, "The ages of the victims were not immediately given. It wasn’t immediately clear how many people were inside when the stampede erupted or the club’s maximum capacity."
According to the audience at Italian rapper Sfera Ebbasta’s concert at the Lanterna Azzurra nightclub panicked and ran for the exits after someone sprayed a substance similar to pepper spray.
