A MAN has been shot dead on Spain’s Costa del Sol – the second fatal shooting in less than 48 hours.
National Police are investigating reports that the killer laid in wait for the 34-year-old victim who was shot several times as he arrived home in Estepona.
The 112 Andalucia emergency control centre and the National Police received calls that shots had been heard in the town’s El Campanario urbanisation.
Police found the lifeless body of the man who had suffered several bullet wounds.
The attacker is reported to have hidden his face under a balaclava and fled the scene on a bicycle.
