Ambush in the night: Salvatore Equabile, a 42-year-old with multiple criminal convictions, nephew of the Quartieri Spagnoli boss, shot in his legs. He told the police that he had been the victim of an attempted robbery in via San Nicola La Strada. The case is being investigated by the Carabinieri of the Naples mobile radio unit, who intervened in the Pellegrini emergency room and listened to the victim.

His version is being examined by investigators, but knowing his criminal record it seems rather unlikely. Salvatore Equabile, known as "Sasà", was arrested after a long absence in 2011. He was on holiday at the seaside when the carabinieri captured him. Equabile was already known to the police for robbery and weapons, and was considered a leading member of the Terracciano family. And, above all, he is the nephew of the clan leader Salvatore Terracciano, known as 'o nirone.
