Naples – A tense night in the Berlingieri district, where a 17-year-old was injured by a gunshot in circumstances that are still unclear. The young man was rescued shortly after 2:00 a.m. and rushed to the CTO hospital, where he was admitted with a red code but his life was not in danger.
Doctors are preparing surgery to remove the warhead that remains embedded in his leg.
The State Police are investigating the case . Officers from the San Carlo Police Station, having interviewed the boy in the hospital ward, are trying to reconstruct what happened on Viale delle Dolomiti, in the heart of the neighborhood.
The 17-year-old reportedly said he was shot while he was on the street, but was unable to provide any details that would clarify the circumstances of the injury.
Investigators are considering several hypotheses, ranging from an accidental shot to a possible warning or an episode linked to local tensions. Investigations are underway at the location indicated by the young man to verify any traces, witness statements, or video surveillance footage.
The situation remains unclear at the moment, but investigations are continuing unabated to shed light on yet another crime in the area north of Naples.
