Lionel Messi’s Brother Is Wanted In After Police Found His Gun In A Blood Soaked Boat

The older brother of five-time world best footballer, Lionel Messi, is allegedly a wanted man in Argentina after policemen discovered a gun in his blood-soaked boat.
According to reports, Matias Messi allegedly told a security guard at the Fighiera fishing club that he cut his face by colliding with a sandbar. But after police discovered a .380 handgun inside Matias’ motorboat, all attempts to track him down for questioning failed.
As it stands now, the Messi family are trying all possible mediums to wade off the accusations. In a family press statement on Monday (Dec 4), they claimed that Matias was not carrying a gun on the boat — and has been unavailable for questioning because he’s at the hospital preparing for surgery.
In 2008, Mattias was arrested for carrying a loaded firearm without a permit. In 2015, he was detained for again failing to provide documentation for his gun. Has Mattias finally brought shame to the scandal free Messi family?
