Naples Clan Boss, Woman and Two Minors Detained Over Quartieri Spagnoli Ambush

Prosecutors say the September 15 shooting was a punitive strike after an explicit video of the boss’s daughter circulated.

Overview

  • Judges validated the measures on October 17–18, remanding the two adults to prison and placing the minors in separate juvenile facilities.
  • Investigators allege the 46-year-old leader, despite being under house arrest, opened fire from a stolen scooter with his 16-year-old son and an unidentified accomplice.
  • Gunfire struck a 23-year-old in the abdomen, leaving him in very serious condition, while the intended teenage target was not hit.
