A historic site has been surrounded by a security "red zone" due to violent crime incidents. The area around the ancient Colosseum has seen increased crime, including an attack in July where a group of about 50 young people injured police officers by shooting fireworks. This incident is part of a larger pattern of security issues at the site.

Authorities have deployed extra security to the area in an effort to address these issues. The Colosseum has historically been associated with danger, including in fiction. For more information on the security measures and incidents, further details are available from the source.
