Carabinieri police carrying out a number of rescue operations in flood-hit Emilia-Romagna on Sunday were also forced in a number of cases to intervene to send away people taking selfies near overflowing rivers and streams. Officers said in that in areas around Reggio Emilia and in particular in Castelnuovo di Sotto, Carabinieri police had to send away several people who were close to the river banks in spite of an official warning to stay away from rivers and shelter in place issued by regional authorities.
