The van subsequently exploded, resulting in the death of all four occupants. Local authorities, the Carabinieri, arrested the two suspects following a review of the surveillance video. Initial reports indicate the motive for the attack was a dispute over payment for transportation in the van. The victims were employed as seasonal agricultural laborers in the region.
