Quarrel in the family risks ending in tragedy in Cagliari, where last night the carabinieri of the Radiomobile Section tasked a 66-year-old local who had attacked his wife.

The military intervened in the couple's home after a request reached the operations center in via Nuoro by the same woman who was the victim of the attack.

Arriving on the spot, they saw the man - drunk - attacking his wife and threatening her with a knife and scissors . They invited him to follow them and he, in response, also brandished the knife against the carabinieri .

So, to prevent the situation from escalating, one of the soldiers who intervened rendered him harmless thanks to two light discharges of warning with the taser .

The 66-year-old was taken to the barracks with the 118 ambulance, requested by the carabinieri themselves, and then transported to the Santissima Trinità hospital for investigations.

For him the urgent removal from the family home was triggered. The man, already known to the police, was also referred for mistreatment in the family, threat and resistance to a public official.

Seized the knife and scissors.
