Under the cover of darkness and having carefully studied the movements of his targets, the perpetrator set up a cartel in the early hours of the morning on a 42-year-old outside the apartment complex where he lives in Oroklini.
At the scene together with the 42-year-old was also a 39-year-old with his only 6-year-old child.
The perpetrator, who seems to have been following their movements, opened fire indiscriminately towards the driver's side of the vehicle, ignoring even the child who was sitting in the back seat and is believed to have seen him get into the vehicle as they were going hunting.
Ant’ they themselves became the prey for the would-be executor who after the armed attack fled in an unknown direction.
The new criminal act resulted in the serious injury of both the 42-year-old and the 6-year-old child.
Both were transported by ambulance to the Larnaca General Hospital where it was found that the 42-year-old has a wound in the abdomen and the leg, while the 6-year-old boy also has a penetrating wound in the leg and was admitted to the pediatric department where he underwent surgery.
