[新聞] Liverpool supporters 'hunted' by Napoli Ultra fans
Gangs of hardcore football fans went out to hunt down and attack Liverpool
supporters in Naples ahead of their goalless draw, Italian police said.
There were several incidents on Wednesday night, ahead of Liverpool's Europa
League tie at Napoli's Stadio San Paolo on Thursday.
Three Liverpool fans have been treated in hospital for stab wounds. Four
others were also injured.
Italian police stepped up security ahead of the game.
One of the men who was stabbed has since been released from hospital.
Two others, 53-year-old Alexander Phillips, of Liverpool, and a 27-year-old
who is not being named, are due to be released from hospital later, the BBC's
correspondent in Rome, Duncan Kennedy said.
Mr Phillips had injuries to his buttocks and thighs, and the other man was
wounded in the head, he said.

Three arrested
The other four were injured when they were attacked by a group of 20 to 30
men.
Gary Brown, 50, from Hertfordshire, and his son Adam, 17, received a knife
injury and bruising respectively.
Mr Brown's other son Daniel, 23, was not injured but family friend Ross
Hazeldene, also 23, suffered a knife wound.
A Naples police spokesman said the group had been on the way back to their
hotel when they realised they were being followed.
"Realising the danger they were in, they started to run towards their hotel
but the group caught up with them at the corner of Garibaldi Street and
Piazza Garibaldi," he said.
"At this point they were attacked with sticks and iron bars."
They tried to take refuge in a hotel but the door was closed.
Trouble had started at about midnight when hardcore Napoli fans - known as
Ultras - began throwing items at English fans in a pizzeria.
Three people were arrested over the violence, two from Naples and one from
nearly Avellino, Italian police confirmed.
