Monday, February 2 marks the 59th anniversary of the death of the Deputy Brigadier of the Public Security Guard Corps Nicola Mignogna and for the occasion at 10.00 am, in via Monsignor Bologna the plaque in his memory will be inaugurated;
The commemorative plaque will be affixed, by the will of the Municipality of Campobasso and the State Police, on the building that was the Fire Department, now municipally owned and headquarters of the GAL near the place where the Deputy Public Security Brigadier Nicola Mignogna, the Public Security Brigadier Giovanni Paduano and the Public Security Guard Ignazio Cammisano, at three o'clock in the morning on February 2, 1967, were injured by the gunshots of the very dangerous criminal Paolo Caso. Brigadier Giovanni Paduano, shot in the elbow, and the Guard Ignazio Cammisano, shot at the cheekbone, survived.
Mignogna, although hit in the abdomen, found the strength and determination to get behind the wheel of the service car to rescue and take his colleagues to the hospital but, right in the place where the tombstone was placed, he was overwhelmed by internal bleeding, lost consciousness and collapsed on the steering wheel of the FIAT 1100.
