Camaiore \u2013 According to investigators, a 63-year-old man shot and killed his wife and their son with a hunting rifle in a residential building in the Versilia region of Tuscany. The double murder in Camaiore took place on Wednesday afternoon (June 24) in the hillside village of Pieve di Camaiore. The suspected perpetrator then reportedly climbed onto the roof of the house and waited there without resistance for the Carabinieri to arrive. He told relatives and neighbors who rushed to the scene that he had \u201efreed\u201c himself from the two.<\/p>\n

Shots fired shortly before 3 p.m.<\/h2>\n

According to an initial reconstruction of events by the authorities, the man\u2014a 63-year-old bricklayer named Piero Moriconi\u2014is said to have grabbed a hunting rifle in the apartment shortly before 3:00 p.m. and fired at the two family members. The victims were his 52-year-old wife, Kathy Andreoni, and his 24-year-old son, Mirko. According to reports, the alarm was raised by a relative who heard the shots and approached the house. At 2:32 p.m., the emergency dispatch center received a call reporting an ongoing shooting in the town of Pieve and an armed person on the roof.<\/p>\n

Large contingent of rescue workers<\/h2>\n

The control center immediately activated the emergency plan and dispatched numerous emergency responders to the scene. According to emergency services, the emergency medical vehicle from Viareggio, an ambulance from Misericordia di Camaiore, the Red Cross from Viareggio, and the regional rescue helicopter Pegaso 3 were on the scene; the Carabinieri and the fire department also arrived. After the emergency responders had secured the area, the paramedics could only confirm the deaths of the woman and the young man. Both had been struck by shots fired from the hunting rifle.<\/p>\n

\u201eI've freed myself from them\u201c<\/h2>\n

Piero Moriconi remained at the scene until the Carabinieri arrived and allowed himself to be arrested without resistance; the murder weapon was seized. He reportedly commented on the crime to relatives and neighbors, saying that he had \u201efreed\u201c himself from the two. He also told his relatives that he had subsequently put the hunting rifle he used back in the house. Investigators are currently analyzing these statements.<\/p>\n

Investigators are looking into a long-standing family dispute<\/h2>\n

The investigation focused on an incident that occurred after years of disputes. The father reportedly did not accept his son\u2019s homosexuality. In a video posted online, the 24-year-old said that after he came out, his father had told him, \u201eI\u2019d rather be dead than gay.\u201c A relative, who identified himself as the son\u2019s brother-in-law, described the tensions in the household to reporters on the scene: There had been shouting; the son had been in a difficult state, had recently been drinking more and more, and had been taken to the hospital and treated on multiple occasions. The 63-year-old father could no longer bear the situation. His wife had recently expressed concern to him that Piero might do something reckless. Concrete evidence of a motive is still lacking; the Carabinieri are continuing to reconstruct the exact sequence of events.<\/p>\n

A son who dedicated poems to his mother<\/h2>\n

The slain son was considered artistically gifted: He had been a rapper and went by the first name Michelangelo and his mother\u2019s last name, Andreoni, on social media. On Mother\u2019s Day, he had published a long poem set to music for Kathy Andreoni\u2014a sign of the close bond between mother and son, in which he described her as the embodiment of love and tenderness.<\/p>\n

The Lucca District Attorney's Office had the property seized for forensic investigations. The investigation into the exact circumstances of the crime and its background was ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
