Two victims were found on the road outside a hotel, while the third victim died from their injuries in hospital.

The 69-year-old gunman reportedly shot and killed his ex-wife’s partner, 48, and her 63-year-old mum, who was a Ukrainian national.

He then reportedly chased and shot his ex-wife, 42, who was also of Ukrainian origin.

She is currently at the Rizzolo hospital in Lacco Ameno.

The attacker was also rushed to hospital after he turned the gun on himself, and died later.

The shocking attack took place on Saturday at around 6:30pm on the island of Ischia in the Cuotto area in Forio.

Local cops said the area is still cordoned off while they continue to investigate the circumstances of the attack.

State police and volunteers are helping with the investigation.

The shocking attack comes after a shooting left a mobster’s niece dead in a nightclub as part of a suspected mafia war last year.

Antonia Lopez, 19, was reportedly killed as scores were being settled between gangs involved in drug trafficking and extortion.

The young woman was gunned down at Bahia nightclub in Puglia, Italy, as Michele Lavopa, 21, allegedly sought to kill a different man – Eugenio Palermiti, 21.

Lavopa handed himself into police after his mother convinced him to and confessed, La Gazzetta del Mezzogiorno reported.

He has now been charged with voluntary homicide, quadruple attempted homicide, and possession and carrying of a firearm.

The three involved were all scions of different criminal gangs, with Lopez pals with target Palermiti.

And in 2021, two young brothers were killed by a crazed shooter, with the boys holding their father’s hand as they died.

David and Daniel Fusinato, aged five and 10, were shot while playing in the street in the Italian town Ardea, near Rome.

Their grandmother, Sonia di Gennaro, said the boys’ dad – Domenico – was with them until the very end.

She told Italian newspaper La Stampa: “They died holding their father’s hand.

“The ambulance arrived too late, it took half an hour.”
