Arrested by the carabinieri on charges of attempted murder a young man of 28 who in Castel Madama, a town on the outskirts of Rome, wounded his mother's companion with the arrow of a crossbow.
The man, 50, was hit in the kidney and underwent surgery: his condition is serious. The 28-year-old, whose personal details were not disclosed, was taken to the Rebibbia prison.
According to the first findings of the carabinieri, there was bad blood between the two because the young man did not accept the relationship. The quarrel broke out in the house of the mother, who gave the alarm: the carabinieri and two ambulances arrived immediately on the spot. The man, shot in the back by the arrow, was found on the ground in very serious condition.
He was then rescued by the 118 operators who requested the intervention of an air ambulance that transported him to the Gemelli polyclinic in Rome. Here he was operated on and is now hospitalized subject to prognosis.
The young man, enrolled at the university and seems to be a lover of weapons, was still in the house: he did not offer any resistance to the carabinieri.
