March 19, 2020 A 23-year-old stabbed his mother last night. It happened in San Vito dei Normanni, in the Brindisi area. The young man would hit the woman in the chest five times with a switchblade knife.

The murder was said to have taken place after a quarrel for futile reasons between the victim and his son. The young man was reportedly in the bed of his room when he suddenly got up to take the switchblade knife he kept in his room. And after reaching her mother in the corridor she stabbed her. The 23 year old then moved away from the house but was found by the Carabinieri, called by the neighbors alarmed by the woman's screams. The murder weapon would have been found on a dry stone wall near the building where the victim lived with his two children.

The young man was arrested for murder compounded by futile reasons. An autopsy was arranged on the victim's body.
