One man was killed and another wounded in a shooting in a popular district south of Bastia on Saturday by an individual who later became a prisoner, the Bastia prosecutor said.
Two brothers targeted?
According to the first elements of the investigation, the victim would be the manager of a bar. The injured man, who is his brother, was hit in the thigh by a projectile. He made his own way to the hospital and his life is not in danger.
The events took place in an alley lined with three bars and a few shops in the popular district of Lupino where old buildings and HLMs dominate, at the southern exit of Bastia.
