(ANSA) - ROME, JAN 31 - He did not pass the delicate surgery he underwent last night and was declared clinically dead.
Thomas Bricca, 18, had been wounded in the head last night in an ambush in the center of Alatri in the Frusinate area.
The young man, whose conditions immediately appeared desperate, was in a square in Alatri when he was flanked by a scooter with two misrepresented aboard who shot him and fled.
In the background perhaps a revenge or a settlement of accounts between gangs of boys.
The carabinieri are listening to some witnesses to try to outline the context in which the ambush took place.
According to what is learned, the investigations would be oriented towards a group of young people who had already been the protagonist of some fights in the center of Frosinone in the previous evenings.
The motive probably a revenge or a settlement of accounts perhaps for the control of the square.
The suspicion, but for now it remains only a hypothesis, is that the attack is linked to a drug dealing ring.
"Already this morning, considering the brawls that took place in the historic center over the weekend, I had heard and written to the Alatri Carabinieri Command asking for more controls in order to ensure the safety and serenity of the entire citizenry, who have the full right to live in the city in complete safety" , so in a post on Facebook the mayor of AlatriMaurizio Cianfrocca.
