A vehicle owned by the Communauté d’agglomération de Bastia (CAB) was stolen and set on fire during the night of Sunday to Monday in the town of Furiani, according to a statement posted on the intercommunality’s social media accounts. The CAB confirmed it has filed a complaint with the police. This incident followed another occurrence just hours earlier, when the snack bar at the Erbajolo stadium—shared by local football clubs FC Lupinu and AS Furiani Agliani—was broken into, vandalized, and damaged during the night of Friday to Saturday.
The CAB expressed its concern over these two incidents, which occurred within 48 hours, and called for "respect of public property" in a statement released on Monday. The intercommunality emphasized that its vehicles and equipment are meant to serve the public and urged those responsible to respect this purpose. "Beyond the reprehensible nature of these events," the CAB said, "we wish to remind the perpetrators that our equipment, vehicles, and all our public property are at the service of everyone."
During the night of Friday to Saturday, the Erbajolo stadium’s snack bar suffered a break-in, with items being stolen and damage caused. A short distance away, a CAB vehicle was also stolen and set on fire. The timing of these events suggests a possible link, though no official connection has been made public. The stolen and destroyed CAB vehicle was reportedly taken before it was set on fire, according to the CAB’s statement.
The Erbajolo stadium, a local sports venue, has become a focal point for these incidents. The snack bar there, which serves fans of both AS Furiani Agliani and FC Lupinu, was targeted at the start of the weekend. These events have raised concerns about the security of public spaces and the protection of community assets in the region.
