The policemen arrived urgently in Quartu Sant'Elena where a woman had been attacked and threatened with a fork by her son. In the house they found the 118 health workers who, a few earlier, had sedated a very violent 31-year-old. Once the man was put in safety, the agents reconstructed what happened by listening to the victim.
The 70-year-old explained that for some time her son has had aggressive behaviors motivated by the constant request for money to buy drugs he is taking. And waste triggers increasingly violent reactions. The woman stressed that she had never reported her son for fear of retaliation and fearing for her own safety and that of a cohabiting invalid sister. During this period he also suffered death threats and yesterday morning the screams attracted the attention of neighbors and a friend who intervened to stop the 31-year-old.
Even in front of the policemen, this continued in his conduct against his mother. A few days ago, it emerged from the investigations, he was denounced for a similar story against his ex-wife.
The handcuffs were released, the man was taken to the Uta prison.
