Customers of a cafe credited with pioneering Melbourne’s famous coffee culture piled flowers and condolences outside on Saturday, Nov. 10, mourning its well-known co-owner, Sisto Malaspina, who was stabbed to death in an attack police have called an act of terrorism.
Malaspina, 74, a familiar face behind the coffee machine at the city-center Pellegrini’s cafe, was killed in the attack on Friday, his business partner Nino Pangrazio told The Age newspaper.
