A 39-year-old man shot two members of his family at dawn on 23 July 2026 in the hinterland of Cagliari, in Sardinia. At around 05:45 the carabinieri operations room in Quartu Sant'Elena was alerted by the emergency medical service to a 47-year-old woman, the suspect's wife, who had been shot in the head in the coastal village of Solanas; the gunman left the scene by car. A second call at about 06:10 reported a further shooting in the Margine Rosso district of Quartu Sant'Elena, where his 42-year-old brother was found dead at their parents' home, killed by a gunshot to the torso. At about 06:15 the suspect, a Cagliari man who held firearms legally, presented himself at a carabinieri barracks and stated that he had shot his wife and his brother. Investigators' initial reconstruction points to family conflict as the motive. The woman was taken to hospital in a critical condition. She was treated in the intensive care unit of the Brotzu hospital in Cagliari for her head wounds from 23 July, and died on 17 August 2026, 25 days after the attack.
