A 30-year-old from Olmedo was arrested by the carabinieri for seriously injuring his 44-year-old brother with a knife. The charge is that of attempted murder.

The "bloody violence", as the investigators called it, took place in the family home, where the two live with their elderly parents. Everything would have happened for futile reasons.

The 30-year-old, at the height of a quarrel, allegedly - this is the reconstruction - grabbed a kitchen knife, unleashing "deep slashes in the chest, arm and head" of his brother. So he disappeared.

After the alarm, the soldiers of the local station intervened on the spot together with the colleagues of the operational and mobile unit of Alghero, who started the investigations.

The 44-year-old was instead rescued and transported to the Riviera Del Corallo hospital, where he was hospitalized, conscious, but in serious condition. However, it would not be life threatening.

The investigations by the men of the Arma - who listened to testimonies and also identified the knife used for the wound - then made it possible to trace the 30-year-old, who had hidden in the countryside. He had changed his clothes, but the military also found his clothes still stained with blood.

Then the release of handcuffs and the transfer to the Bancali prison.

The investigations are continuing now to shed full light on the incident and to understand the reasons for the aggression carried out by the 30-year-old who, reportedly, in the past was subjected to mandatory health intervention.
