At the height of an argument, an 84-year-old killed his son with a bar. The murder took place in Roletto, in the Turin area.
According to an initial reconstruction, Pierangelo Romagnollo had an argument with his 40-year-old son, Ailton, while they were in the garden of their villa. They have been living alone for about ten years, ever since the old man's wife died. The couple had adopted Ailton, of Brazilian origin, when he was still a child.
After the crime, the murderer called an acquaintance to tell everything and it was the latter who alerted the police.
Neighbors confirmed that arguments between the two were frequent.
