Shot during argument over World Cup. Murderer has been identified as Holger B., German. HANOVER – Two Italians were shot and killed on Monday morning in a bar in the red-light district of Hanover, Lower Saxony, German police sources have announced. The Italian Foreign Ministry has confirmed the news.
The three men failed to agree on how many times Italy has won the World Cup.
One of the victims, Franco Siccu 47 years old, was a pizza chef in the Little Italy restaurant in Hanover and the other, Giuseppe Longhitano 49 years old, worked in a pizza restaurant in Linden. Both were wearing Italian football jerseys.
The trouble started when drink had been consumed and the two started arguing with the other customer about how many times Italy has won the World Cup. Holger B. left the bar saying he had to get some money from an ATM. An hour later, he returned and invited Longhitano to continue the discussion outside. When the Italian got up, Holger B. produced a gun, shot him and then Franco Siccu as well before making his escape on foot.
The murder weapon was found a few yards from the bar.
