A settling of scores between two Albanian groups that are competing for the reorganization of the drug dealing and prostitution areas, hit in recent weeks by a series of operations that have dismantled the previous command structure: this is the hypothesis on which the investigations of the police of the commissioner Domenico Condello are focusing to shed light on the ambush that occurred shortly before 7.30pm this evening in the Shake Bar on the central Via Aldo Moro in the lower part of Frosinone, which cost the life of one person while three others were injured, one of them in very serious condition.
The victims were sitting at a table in the restaurant.
Two of them - also of Albanian nationality according to the police - arrived in a Lancia Ypsilon just before 7.30pm and started arguing.
After a few jokes, one of the men who got out of the car pulled out a gun and fired a series of shots in rapid succession, hitting all four people at the table.
Attempts to resuscitate the most seriously injured of the four were useless;
he was hit in the neck and chest and was declared dead after about twenty minutes of cardiac massage.
The other man who remained on the ground was taken by ambulance to Spaziani in Frosinone and from there to Umberto I in Rome in desperate conditions.
Another wounded man underwent surgery at Spaziani: a bullet caused him to fracture a leg, the condition of the fourth wounded man was more minor.
The victim was identified and shortly after 8.30pm the relatives arrived and the police accompanied them to the police station to try to reconstruct the context in which the crime occurred.
