Luca Toni and his family experienced a traumatic situation on Thursday afternoon that, at least, there was no regret in terms of physical damage. The former striker of Fiorentina and the Italian team, among others, suffered a robbery at his home in the province of Modena at gunpoint, as he himself confirmed through social networks. Three criminals circumvented the security measures and acceded armed at his home, detaining them for two hours. Toni himself recounts what happened: “While the news is circulating, I wanted to inform you that on Thursday night between 7:30 pm and 9:30 pm I suffered a robbery at my house by three criminals wearing ski masks and weapons. The most important thing is that my family is well, they have not hurt us even though we have suffered a good trauma and a strong scare. I also regret that the criminals have taken away my precious assets, but above all emotional assets. As soon as the event concluded, the public order forces have intervened, surely alerted by the neighbors when they saw a car driving down my street; the surveillance did not notice anything, I ask for respect and privacy for me and my family at this time thank you all “.
Luca Toni is no longer active, but it is evident that lately in Italy footballers and ex are in the crosshairs of organized mafias. Only in transalpine lands, in recent weeks Douglas Costa, when he still belonged to Juve, and Ribery (Fiorentina) have also been robbed from their homes. In addition, Cristiano Ronaldo was also the target of an assault and a robbery at his home, although in this case it was in Madeira.
In the case of Luca Toni they have gone a step further. Neither Cristiano, nor Douglas Costa nor Ribery's family were at their home at the scene of the assault. In this way, what Luca Tony's family experienced is an escalation of violence since they were held at gunpoint. The most striking thing, as the former forward explains, is that the private security service was mocked in this way.
