Reggio, the shrine in memory of Canonico damaged. Falcomatà: “Serious gesture that tarnishes his memory. Already repaired”

“We express a strong feeling of closeness to Pietro Canonicofor what happened to the shrine in memory of little Gianluca, killed at the age of ten in 1985, in Reggio Calabriafrom a stray bullet during a shootout in the Pescatori district. An act that tarnishes the memory of our little Gianluca, which occurred in a central place of our city, the “Garden of Memory”, created as part of a campaign in memory of the innocent victims of the mafia called “The memory leaves its mark”. A space monitored by cameras, a stone’s throw from important offices and right in the center between several schools. We don’t want to think that the act was aimed at the innocent little Gianluca, but it is clear that this is a serious vandalism episode that cannot leave anyone indifferent, so that the memory of little Gianluca always remains a warning and accompanies the community of honest people from Reggio, the vast majority, on the path of legality and justice. Thanks to the report received in recent days and the prompt intervention of the trainees on duty at the Professional Training Sector 5 of the Metropolitan City, the stele was promptly repaired. For our part, we hope that full light will be shed on what happened and that the entire State team will make its full closeness to father Pietro felt, restoring him the necessary serenity, in memory of his little angel who has entered everyone’s hearts for decades now. the people of Reggio”. Thus the metropolitan mayor of Reggio Calabria, Giuseppe Falcomatà.
