February 19, 2021A owner of a well-known shoe shop in Genoa was stabbed to death in the store in via Colombo.

It happened just before closing time.

From what is learned CC, 69, died of two stab wounds that reached her in the neck and abdomen.

The attempts at resuscitation by the 118 health workers were useless. According to the first reconstructions, the woman's ex-partner is being sought, on whom investigations are underway.

At the time of the attack, the woman would have been alone in the shop.



On the spot, the police and the carabinieri closed the affected stretch of road with tape and sealed access to the shop.

At the moment all the hypotheses remain open, therefore, it is not known whether it was an attack following a robbery or if the motive is another.

Meanwhile, he is hunting for the murderer, who fled on foot and covered in blood.

It also seems that some passers-by saw the man flee from the shop and tried to stop him.



According to the stories of the victim's cousin, who arrived on the spot, the couple's relations had deteriorated: "They had broken up for a few months. He always telephoned her, before he stole them in the house. He had made a lot of them and she could no longer bear", declared the victim's cousin.

"I had seen her today - continued the relative - and she was calm".



"The man was always here and he was bothering her, he had lost his mind", say the traders near the slipper shop.

"We knew he had problems but they didn't think they could get to this point."



In the last week, the man had been caught urinating on the shop's shutter while on Wednesday the police had intervened in a school in the Levant where the man had entered to kill himself by trying to jump out of a window.

The craftsman was in economic difficulties not for the Coronavirus but it seems for the vice of the game.

Now he is on the run and his capture could explain everything.
