In St. Petersburg, a car enthusiast opened fire because of tire service prices.

17 April 2024

The gun was a gas gun; the workshop employee was not seriously injured.

A resident of St. Petersburg found out the cost of services from a tire repair shop, grabbed a gun and became a defendant in a criminal case. An unemployed 52-year-old St. Petersburg resident drove his BMW car to a car service center on Grazhdansky Avenue on March 27. And when he came to pick up the car, he caused a scandal, which ended with shooting from a Dobrynya aerosol pistol.

It is noted that the 41-year-old owner of a car service center was injured. He received burns to the corneas of both eyes and was forced to go to a medical facility. A disgruntled tire service customer was detained at the crime scene. A criminal case was opened against him under Part 2 of Art. 213 of the Criminal Code (“Hooliganism committed with the use of weapons”).

It is known that the brawler had problems with the law in the 90s and was prosecuted for racketeering, but until today he has never come to the attention of law enforcement officers. Given his interesting past, the police put him in the bullpen.
