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.

The government authorities are meeting now. They're talking about a ban on traveling support for the rest of the season.

EDIT: initial report in Gazzetta circa 3.30pm CET: ban on traveling support and closure of the curva in Bergamo (ie, Atalanta's). These are 'the first decisions' made by the extraordinary meeting going on in Rome (including government, the Italian FA and Lega Calcio officials).

Yet it was the home fans(Atalanta) who caused the problems! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

No wonder Serie A is frowned upon.
