Lecce-Brindisi Expressway (February 9, 2026) – An armored cash van belonging to the Battistolli Group was targeted in a brutal attack on the 613 expressway near Tuturano.
Attackers blocked the road with a burning van and engaged in a firefight with Carabinieri.
Although the van was blown up, initial reports suggest the actual robbery may not have been completed before the gang fled in stolen vehicles equipped with police-style blue lights.
