The investigating judge for minors in Brescia has issued a custodial order against a 16-year-old boy who was being investigated for serious injury because on the afternoon of November 22, in Asola (Mantua), on board a bus carrying high school students, he had handled a weapon and fired a shot, wounding a 17-year-old in the mouth and jaw .
The arrested man was taken to the "Beccaria" juvenile prison in Milan, where he will remain at the disposal of the juvenile judicial authority. The investigations of the Carabinieri of Asola have reconstructed the story in detail. The wounded boy, helped by his friends, was taken to the civil hospital of Mantua where the doctors had understood that the wounds had most likely been caused by a bullet fired from a firearm.
The boy had the nose cone of a small-caliber bullet removed, which had also caused a fracture to his jaw . The weapon - a 6.35 caliber Beretta - was found in the Oglio River in the municipality of Canneto by the Carabinieri Underwater Unit of Genoa.
