Ambush in the night in Fonni. Giovanni Mureddu , a 49-year-old lorry driver, was killed with several gunshots.
The man was first wounded by a gunshot while taking his Fiat Sedici out of the garage, at the intersection of via Brigata Sassari and via Rossini. Then he got out of the car and tried to escape towards the countryside in via Marceddu, but was only able to travel a few metres. His desperate attempt to escape lasted very little: Mureddu was caught and "executed" with several gunshots, the last, probably fatal one, to the head . A real, brutal execution.
The episode occurred last night after 11pm. Men from the Fonni police station and the Nuoro police station intervened on site and are investigating the matter coordinated by prosecutor Ireno Satta : they are questioning several people close to the victim and sifting through the images of the cameras in the area, which may have filmed some phases of the ambush. It also delves into the past of the victim, who had several precedents and had also been involved in a feud with Siurgus Donigala .
And the witness who reported the body to the police could be decisive in the reconstruction : the man was interviewed twice by the men of the Flying Squad, who are trying to understand whether he saw or heard something in the frenetic moments of the crime.
The autopsy will be performed in Nuoro by the medical examiner Salvatore Demontis.
The mayor of Fonni Daniela Falconi expressed the country's "dismay" and "sadness" at this " unexpected wave of violence ".
