Italian police on Tuesday arrested 171 people in Naples in a crackdown on organized crime that put entire families behind bars and broke up a lucrative drug trafficking ring, authorities said. The Naples prosecutors' office said the arrests mainly stemmed from the testimony of a boss-turned-informant who started cooperating with magistrates five years ago. The morning raids in downtown Naples involved about 1,000 police officers, The Associated Press reported. The arrests targeted two clans of the Camorra crime syndicate that controlled the drug trafficking ring in and around the southern Italian city for the past decade, authorities said. In some cases couples were accused of selling the drugs with their children.
