The Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera reported this morning (Sunday) that a bullet has been found in the leg of Alessandro Parini, the tourist who was murdered in a terrorist ramming attack on the promenade in Tel Aviv on Friday night.
The bullet was found in a CT scan of Parini's body. While a full autopsy has not yet been performed, the bullet is not believed to be the cause of death. Nor is it known who fired the bullet.
The Institute of Forensic Medicine denied the report.
