South Yorkshire: Appeal & reward offered over Sheffield murder of much-loved chef
Crimestoppers is offering a reward of up to £20,000 for information about the murder of Carlo Giannini, who was stabbed to death in a Sheffield park in May this year.
Carlo was a pizza chef who was originally from Italy and had moved to Sheffield. He was found dead in Manor Fields Park at around 5am on Thursday 12 May. A post-mortem concluded that Carlo had died of a stab wound.
New CCTV evidence suggests he walked into the park around 1.18am, although what happened afterwards continues to be a mystery.
South Yorkshire Police has told our charity that, following arrests, an 18-year-old man remains on bail and a 17-year-old boy faces no further action.
***To support the investigation and encourage people who need to stay anonymous, Crimestoppers – which is independent of the police - is offering a reward of up to £20,000 for information the charity exclusively receives that leads to the conviction of those responsible***
