Serial killer tried to shoot Zlatan Ibrahimovic… for his dodgy parking

Bit extreme

Curb Your Enthusiasm meets Falling Down.

A convicted Swedish killer was so appalled by Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s parking that he went home to fetch his gun so he could shoot the PSG star.

Think if Larry David had finally lost it like Michael Douglas.

Convicted murderer, Peter Mangs, was sentenced to life in prison in 2010 for carrying out a string of attacks in a seven-year period that included two murders and eight attempted murders.

And someone is looking to make money out of his actions.

In his new book, Mangs writes about a confrontation he had with football superstar Zlatan Ibrahimovic over parking.

It seems the killer was so angered by Zlatan’s pavement parking – which he describes as “typically Balkan behaviour” – that he went to get his gun only to find Ibra and his Ferrari gone upon his return to the spot.

“I thought there would be a proper hullabaloo in the media if the gent in question were to be shot,” Mangs’ writing was quoted in French site, The Local.

And to think Zlatan didn’t hang about to hear his side of the story.
