It was a 12-year-old boy who exploded a gunshot that wounded a 31-year-old on Friday evening in Montichiari, in the Brescia area.
This is what the Carabinieri ascertained according to which a 27-year-old relative who was arrested and now in prison on charges of attempted murder, receiving stolen goods and illegal possession of a clandestine weapon was the arming of the minor.
After arguing with the victim over a girl, the 27-year-old allegedly instructed the boy to go and hit him.
The military seized a drum pistol with an abraded registration number.
The victim was hospitalized in serious condition, but not life threatening.
