During yesterday evening, Thursday 25 May 2017, some armed guards arrived in front of the entrance to the Fiocchi Munizioni factory a Lecco, also arousing some concern. The task force came up with machine guns and bulletproof vests, with the president of the Lombard company, Stefano Fiocchi, who decided to participate with one of the same jackets. The garrison, quite massive in numerical terms, lasted a few hours, even if the reasons are not clear.
Based on what has been leaked so far, it would be there a very serious report in relation to threats in the Como area. As the president specified, the information was very precise, but not specifically addressed to Fiocchi. Anyway, it was decided to raise the guard level. The number one of the Lecco group did not release any other statements about the evening and the armed guards.
The hypothesis that circulates the most is that of a signal from above, then from Ministry of the Interior: Fiocchi Munizioni would therefore have taken the situation into account, requiring greater attention to the plant.
