Teen held over club disaster released

(ANSA) - Ancona, December 12 - A 17-year-old boy suspected of causing a stampede at a nightclub near Ancona last weekend in which six people died, including five minors, was released on Wednesday. The boy is suspected of having caused the wave of panic that led to the stampede at the Lanterna Azzurra in Corinaldo by using pepper spray.
    He is probed for alleged manslaughter and causing bodily harm.
    The teen was held on the basis of a drugs allegation.
    Ancona's court for minors said Wednesday that there were no longer grounds for the suspect to remain in detention. Seven other people involved in the management of the Lanterna Azzurra are also under investigation.
