Man shot in Barcelona dies after attack linked to Serbian clan war

Sunday, 19 April 2026, 20:06 · 1 min read

Krsto Vujić, a 44-year-old man shot on a bar terrace in Barcelona's Poblenou neighbourhood while sitting with his partner and baby, has died in hospital six days after the attack, making it a homicide case. Catalan police (the Mossos d'Esquadra) have linked the killing to the ongoing feud between the Skaljari and Kavac clans — Serbian criminal organisations that were once allies but turned on each other in 2014 over a disputed 200-kilogram cocaine shipment bound for Valencia, and whose conflict has since claimed around 60 lives across Europe. Vujić, believed to be connected to the Skaljari, is now the third person killed in Catalonia in connection with the rivalry, whose roots lie in both groups' South American cocaine smuggling operations.
