Inmates shot with drone-delivered gun
ROME: An Italian prisoner shot at fellow inmates through the bars of their cell with a weapon believed to have been smuggled in by drone, a prison union said yesterday.
The 28-year old, who has links to the Neapolitan mafia, fired three shots Sunday at prisoners he had argued with, but without injuring them, Donato Capece, head of the Sappe prison union, said.
The man had got permission to leave his cell to have a shower, and once the door was open he pulled out the gun and pointed it at a guard, forcing him to hand over his keys, Capece said.
Unable to open the cells of his enemies, the inmate shot through the bars instead.
