Lazio President Claudio Lotito has urged supporters not to blame the police
for the tragic accident that killed “a member of our family.”
Today’s Inter-Lazio match at San Siro was called off after the death of
26-year-old Gabriele Sandri, a DJ and Biancocelesti fan who was accidentally
shot by a wayward police bullet in a motorway service station near Arezzo.
“As soon as I heard the news I tried to get as many details as I could.
Lazio are a big family and the death of one fan – especially in this manner
– was a tragedy,” said Lotito.
“I also attempted to put together as much as I could to understand what
happened. It does not seem to be a football-related incident, but rather two
cars that had Juventus and Lazio fans that met in a motorway service station
near Arezzo.
“The police happened to be there and intervened, but unfortunately it seems
as if an accidental shot – we still need to see the evidence and the
investigation to understand if it was an accident – went off and killed the
fan.”
Lotito was the first to demand that Inter-Lazio be called off after news of
the death came through.
“We immediately pointed out it was wrong to let the game go ahead. However,
we need to explain this is not a battle between the fans and police. Sport
has to be experienced with fair play and dignity for everybody.
“The squad is already at the airport returning to Rome. I immediately
suspended the game out of respect for this lad, his family and the fans.”
