First he stole the gun from a security guard by threatening it with a knife at a gas station, then with the weapon he fired at a group of boys who were standing in front of a bar, hitting four of them.

It happened around midnight in Qualiano ( Naples ): six shots fired, two of the four injured are in very serious conditions .

After a few hours the carabinieri stopped the person responsible for the gesture, tracked down at his parents' house, where he had taken refuge: his name is Marco Bevilacqua , he is 37 years old and is known to the police.

The man is in prison in Poggioreale on charges of attempted multiple murder: questioned by the prosecutor Giuseppe Vitolo, he availed himself of the right not to answer .

At the age of 20, in 2006, he had killed his father- in-law at the height of a dispute, was sentenced to 14 years and 4 months and after a few years in prison he returned to freedom.

The 37-year-old's gesture would be linked - it is the hypothesis - to a dispute that Bevilacqua has had in recent days with the group of injured young people. The two life-threatening boys are both 18 years old, the other two injured are respectively 18 and 19.
