(ANSA) - ROME, SEP 22 - A 19-year-old woman is dead after she was hit in a shooting late on Saturday at a beach club at Molfetta, near Bari, sources said on Sunday.
    Anti-mafia investigators have taken the case because of the suspected involvement of mobsters based in Bari's Japigia district.
    The dead woman has been named as Antonia Lopez, the niece of Ivan Lopez, who was killed in a hit in Bari in September 2021.
    Investigators suspect that the 2021 hit was carried out by men acting on behalf of the Capriati mafia clan of the Bari Vecchia quarter and the Parisi-Palermiti clan of the Japigia district, which is in conflict with the Strisciuglio clan that holds sway in the San Paolo and San Girolamo areas.
    Eugenio Palermiti, a 20-year-old aspiring to be a boss in the Palermiti clan, was among three people injured in Saturday's shooting, sources said. (ANSA).
