The images contained in the file have become a key element for the investigators, documenting with stark clarity the moments of violence that occurred at the Vascone market in Messina. The video shows the dynamics of the attack, in particular the phase in which the 43-year-old, after hitting a 62-year-old, gets back into his van and reverses heading directly towards the victim, who in the meantime was lying on the ground being helped by some present (it is not known whether he had previously been hit by the car or as a result of the attack).
The seriousness of the conduct is evident in the video, where the vehicle is observed deliberately heading towards the group before abruptly changing trajectory at the last moment, grazing the parked vehicles during the escape. This video document confirms the reconstruction of the investigators, according to which the verbal argument, which arose over the management of maneuvering spaces at the entrance to the market area, quickly degenerated into a physical clash and the subsequent attempted run-over, made even more disturbing by the presence of a minor on board the vehicle.
