At the height of an argument, an 85-year-old killed his 56-year-old son with an iron bar. The sad fact happened in Naples, it is more precisely in via dei Calzolai, in the San Pietro a Patierno district, on the northern outskirts of the city. According to what emerges from the first reconstructions carried out by the agents of the Scampia Commissioner who intervened on the spot, the murder would have occurred at the end of the last of numerous quarrels between the two. The victim seems to have asked his father for a sum of money, a request from which another fatal quarrel arose last night, around 22.30 pm. The 85-year-old hit his son several times with an iron bar, killing him. Upon their arrival at the house, the police found the 56-year-old in very serious condition due to his injuries and his father, who told them what happened. The man then fell ill and was transported to the hospital, where he is currently guarded.
The 56-year-old died, despite attempts to rescue the San Giovanni Bosco emergency room, where he was urgently transported by ambulance, already in very serious conditions. The two men were both cleansed.
