Lionel Messi’s SuperMarket Shop was stormed in Rosario, and the assailants left a terrifying note

According to ESPN, after his sister-in-grocery law’s business was attacked in Rosario, Argentina, on Thursday, Paris Saint-Germain player Lionel Messi received a threatening message.

According to reports, two people rode up on a motorcycle and fired 14 shots at the front door and shutter of the “Unico” grocery shop in Rosario’s Lavalle neighborhood. On the cardboard, the assailants also scrawled a menacing message for him. We’re waiting for you, Messi. Drug trafficker Javkin is. He will not take care of you.

The inquiry is already in progress. Yet, the attackers’ intentions remain a mystery because there was no clear motive for the attack. The rising violence in Rosario has sparked concerns from the city’s mayor, Pablo Javkin.

“Rosario is 300km [from Buenos Aires], it is near,” he wrote in a tweet. In order to defend this metropolis that brings fame and science to the nation, as well as the countryside and the arts, federalism, and union, we want to access all of Argentina’s resources against crime.

The intention, according to Celia Arena, the justice minister for the province of Santa Fe, is to purposefully sow fear among the populace and dissuade those of us who are fighting against criminal violence.

Messi and his wife Antonela Roccuzzo have not spoken out about this attack as of yet. The 35-year-old forward is having a respectable season and recently received FIFA’s Best Man award.
