The people wen so squashed that

the tear gas bounced o them

Without even touching the ground.

In Genoa, after that second day,

the atmosphere was...

A policeman on the roadside was enough

to create negative energy.

No one had the courage to

go within 50 meters of him.

And they were night, in my opinion.

They wen like a hostile army,

an enemy army.

I was mentally distraught

and rather exhausted.

I didn't even want to go back

to the stadium.

It was too big, chaotic and dangerous

for my liking.

In hindsight it turned out to be

the wrong decision.

I'd have been safer

among 10,000 people.

Yes, and so I went to the school,

also because, like many others

I wanted to get out of the city.

wen quite upset about

what had happened.

So we decided not to leave

on that day

and to spend the night some where

on the beach.

But then we decided to go to

the Diaz School

because we'd found out we were

allowed to sleep there.

We parked almost in front

of the school gates.

Lena and I went in

and we looked for somewhere

where we could be on our own.

didn't want too many people around,

we wanted to rest

afterward had happened.

We parked the car.

Stefania and Valena went to sleep

right away.

I was getting ready too,

I was talking with some friends,

waiting to be able to use a computer.

After everything we'd experienced

we had the impression that

this was a finale...

a tranquil and comforting finale.

Then all of a sudden

we heard someone shouting:

"Police, police!"

I immediately ran up to

the frontdoor, where my stuff was.

It was a reaction caused by panic.

I thought:
"Get my stuff and go".

"If the police bust in hen,

I don't want to be here".

"I want to try to escape".

In the exact moment in which

I was about to get my rucksack

I saw the police van

banging against the entrance gate.

The courtyard filled up with police

officers entering through the gate,

running towards the door of the school

which was shut.

The police officers wen't running

towards the window like rabid dogs.

They smashed the windows

with their truncheons.

At that moment, I was filled

with panic

and I knew I had to get myself

to safety.

It was a mob of frightened people,

it was chaos.

Everyone was frightened... A mob

of frightened people running away.

Then there were those

who'd just woken up

and were still half-asleep

in their sleeping bags,

trying to understand

what was going on around them.

We were running aimlessly

around the school.

We tried leaving via the scaffolding.

But it was impossible and so

we continued running up and down.

On the third floor we found

a store cupboard near the toilet
