A man stabs 5 people in a shopping center in Assago. An employee died

AGI – There was a serious attack in the shopping center, Carrefour, in Assago in the Milan area. One dead and four injured, including the Monza footballer, Pablo Marì. The carabinieri quickly ruled out the hypothesis of a fundamentalist matrix.

The author, a 46-year-old, is in fact suffering from mental disorders, undergoing treatment for a year for severe depression. The man was blocked by some customers and handed over to the Corsico carabinieri. After taking possession of a knife on display on the supermarket shelves, for no apparent reason, he randomly hit those who passed by. The death concerns an employee of the hypermarket.

He was stopped by Massimo Tarantino, former footballer of Bologna, Inter and Napoli, who, to the microphones of Fanpage.it, however, said “I didn’t do anything, I’m not a hero”.

Four injured were hospitalized in the Red Code and one in the Yellow Code while a sixth person involved was not required to be hospitalized. A 28-year-old man injured in the chest was taken to the Niguarda hospital, while another 40-year-old man hit in the chest was transported to the Milan Polyclinic.

A 72-year-old woman in the hand was also injured: she was brought in the Yellow Code to San Gerardo Monza while another 81-year-old woman was “evaluated but not hospitalized”
