Teenage woman killed in shooting near Bari – TopNews

A 19-year-old woman has died after being hit in a shooting at a beach club in Molfetta, near Bari, on Saturday evening, sources said on Sunday.


Detectives fighting the mafia have taken on the case because of the suspected involvement of mafiosi from the Japigia district of Bari.


The name of the dead woman is Antonia Lopez, the niece of Ivan Lopez, who was killed in an attack in Bari in September 2021.


Investigators suspect that the 2021 attack was carried out by men acting on behalf of the Capriati mafia clan from the Bari Vecchia district and the Parisi-Palermiti clan from the Japigia district, which is in conflict with the Strisciuglio clan, which holds sway in the San Paolo and San Girolamo districts.


Eugenio Palermiti, a 20-year-old who wants to become boss of the Palermiti clan, was one of three people injured in Saturday’s shooting, sources said.
