Inter-Lazio and all Sunday’s Serie A games could be called off after a Lazio fan was killed – apparently by a policeman – during a fight with Juventus supporters.

Initial reports are low on details at the moment, but it is believed two groups of Ultras clashed when they crossed paths at a motorway service station in Badia al Pino, Arezzo.

A Lazio fan was killed during the fighting, but it is currently claimed this was an accident caused by police officers.

A shot rang out to try to distract the group and the news agencies are suggesting the bullet struck the Lazio supporter.

An emergency meeting is currently being held between Lega Calcio President Antonio Matarrese and police chief Antonio Manganelli to decide whether to suspend Inter-Lazio or possibly the entire Week 12 fixture list.

There are fears that if it is confirmed a fan was killed by police officers, the tension between them and the Ultras around Italy will rise to dangerous levels this weekend.

----------------------------------------

Why would there be a fight between a Juventus supporter and a Lazio supporter where the teams play against other teams?

This is really weird.

    A person is died after a crash between ultras in Arezzo on some motorway. According to the first information the victim is a Lazio fan. It is still not clear on what happened and the responsibilities on the death. It seems that the death was caused from a gunshot. The event happened after a clash between Lazio and Juventus tifosi. There is a possibility that Lazio's encounter with Inter to be postponed.

    RIP to the victims.
    Looking at it from a selfish view, this could work out well for us, we have many players injured and with knocks, e.g Camo.
    I know its selfish!

    At the same time Inter and Fiorentina have also injuries and they have tough games which would also serve us well. Also Camoranesi can play in today's game.

    I don't see any reason to stop all the matches. Maybe the Lazio-Inter one. I think media is exaggerating and it's not like the Catania clash we witnessed last year.
