Gunshots were fired during the night outside a well-known nightlife venue in Cava de' Tirreni, in the province of Salerno. A bouncer was grazed by a bullet in the arm, according to Il Mattino Salerno.
The dispute reportedly began when two bouncers noticed that a patron was carrying a pistol and asked him to leave the premises. During the confrontation, the man opened fire. A first shot was directed toward one of the two bouncers, who was unharmed, before a second bouncer was hit.
The wounded man, 34, of foreign origin and resident in Salerno, was struck in the arm. The bullet entered and exited without causing more serious injuries, according to the initial report. He was taken to the emergency department of Santa Maria dell'Olmo hospital.
The gunman fled and city police are investigating. The name of the venue, the identity of the shooter, and the type of weapon used have not been reported, and no further investigative updates were available in the source article.
