I bought XTra NEws at the airport yesterday specifically for this article.

According to it, Luciano was chatting with a friend at a gas station, with his hands fu of groceries when Freckes attacked from behind.

A "source" said doctors had to remove two locks to put in six stitches to close the gash.

Luciano is quoted as saying that he doesn't want anything to happen to Freckes, outside the system of law, which should be alowed to take its course, and that Luciano is a man of peace.

Luciano seemed fine when he played at Donna's concert Tuesday, but as a professional I would imagine he puts such things behind him when he performs.

Too much violence.
