The dispute between neighbors in Mascali, in the province of Catania, ended in tragedy. A 48 year old, GB, hit a 41 year old using a pair of scissors, the bleeding proved fatal for Antonio Raciti. The attacker was arrested for murder, the police found him in his home with his shirt stained with blood and a pouch containing the scissors used to wound his neighbour.
According to a reconstruction by the investigators, the quarrel arose from comments that the victim made to the 48-year-old about his daughter, accusing him of not being a good father due to his association with the 22-year-old, a student away from home.
The arrested man, in a fit of anger, after grabbing some medium-sized scissors that he had with him, repeatedly hit the 41-year-old in the throat, who almost immediately lost consciousness. The victim was taken to Giarre hospital where he died despite having undergone multiple surgeries.
