The crime of passion is also being investigated as an investigative hypothesis to explain the ambush that took place late this morning in Portici. Two hitmen entered the scene on a motorcycle, their faces covered by full-face helmets. Ciro D'Anna, 38, had no chance and was shot in the back five times. He was inside a small bar and tobacconist on Via dell'Università, a few meters from his home, which he regularly frequented with his wife. The woman, with whom D'Anna has a three-year-old son, was questioned at length by police, as were the owners of the bar, which does not have surveillance cameras. Naples DDA prosecutor Maurizio De Marco arrived at the scene of the attack. One of the two hitmen fired five shots at D'Anna, hitting him in the back. The victim is considered a high-ranking member of the Vollaro clan, active in Portici. Originally from Torre del Greco, with multiple criminal records. He was arrested in 2017 on the very street where he was killed today. Ciro D'Anna was hiding two kilos of drugs. He tried to escape into the courtyard of a building but was caught by the police. He was arrested in March 2017 along with five other people on charges of extortion and assault. The criminal case is still ongoing.
