He killed his wife with a stab in the chest, a blow that left the 76-year-old no way out. The murder took place yesterday evening in Livorno, in an apartment in via England.
The alarm was raised by the couple's son who could not get in touch with his parents and went to their home. He called 118, but any help for the mother proved useless, and so did the carabinieri.
The father, an 80-year-old, was in tears and confusion when the military arrived but immediately admitted his responsibilities.
The man was taken to the barracks, where his son was also heard. Investigations continue.
