He was arrested for stabbing and attempting to rob his roommate. It happened yesterday afternoon in Porto Torres. Carabinieri officers from the local mobile unit arrested a man in flagrante delicto for attempted robbery and assault.

The military, alerted by a call to the emergency number 112, intervened at a home in the center where the man, already known to the police, was brandishing a kitchen knife, showing no intention of cooperating.

The Carabinieri immediately realized the danger and decided to use their supplied taser and use the "warning arc" function, warning the attacker that if he didn't drop his weapon, they would activate the device, which would then deliver a non-lethal electric shock. The man, realizing the situation, dropped his knife to the ground.

Following further investigations, the Carabinieri determined that the man, despite being under house arrest for other charges, had threatened his roommate with a knife, in an attempt to steal his cell phone. The knife was seized, and the arrested man was held in custody pending the validation hearing.
