Anorak, shoulder bag, gaze lost in the aisles of the supermarket in the Assago shopping center (Milan) in search of the knife with which he then attacked 6 people , one of whom died during transport to the hospital.
Tg1 exclusively showed the images of the surveillance system of the Carrefour of Assago where two days the 46-year-old Andrea Tombolini threw himself against a group of customers and employees. The videos show the man's entry at 18.35 and cover the next 7 minutes, the moment of fury until the blockade and arrest by the carabinieri.
The man was convinced that he was seriously ill and that he still had little to live. So, first he tried to end it by jumping off the terrace of the Milano Fiori shopping center in Assago, but he didn't make it. Then he went down to the ground floor, went into the Carrefour, walked over to a shelf and grabbed a knife with an 8-inch blade .
Before, he said, he thought of committing suicide but later, seeing around "those happy people, who were fine" he began to strike at random because "they made me envy" .
This is the confession of Andrea Tombolini, accused of murder and double attempted murder. In the late afternoon of two days ago he stabbed the cashier, Luis Fernando Ruggieri, to death and hit 5 other customers, including the Monza player Pablo Marì (who is "well and expresses his closeness" to those who do not have it. has made and the other injured), Franco Caddeo and Francesco Rizzini, hospitalized with a reserved prognosis but not in danger of life.
The man, with a clean record, lives with his mother, father and sister in the Stadera district: eighth grade and unemployed, he has been in crisis for a year due to a very bad depression as his general practitioner told us , but he never gave signs that could suggest a similar gesture.
A month and a half ago for surgery, he punched himself in desperation, but, as the prosecutor of the Republic Marcello Viola explained, " there have been no signs ".
