09 June 2020Killed for an alleged theft of 50 euros. This is the reason that led an 82-year-old to shoot two pistol shots in the chest of a 39-year-old woman this morning.

Due to her financial difficulties, the woman had been welcomed to the pensioner's house in Lentini for a few days. The elder, with precedents, would have noticed that a 50 euro banknote was missing, and accused the woman of having robbed him: a violent quarrel was born, then the man, who confessed, took the gun he held illegally and made fire.

The carabinieri of Augusta arrested the elderly man for murder. Now he is locked up in the prison of Syracuse.
