At the umpteenth request for money for the purchase of drugs, he received a resounding "no" from his mother, so he pushed her. The woman asked for help and the carabinieri of the local station intervened on the spot, an apartment in Domus de Maria . The son, a 28-year-old unemployed man, was in a state of great agitation.

Against the soldiers, from behind the glass of a French window, he aimed a pistol, which later turned out to be a dog slinger without a red cap. Only after a long dialogue was it decided to lower it, allowing the carabinieri to enter the house. The chaser was recovered along with 19 shots and 1.2 grams of marijuana.

The young man, arrested for ill-treatment of family members, was assisted by an ambulance and transported in a confused state to the Santissima Trinità hospital in Cagliari.
