Sparanise – He tried to flee after stabbing a 34-year-old during a violent argument, but eventually turned himself in.
Article Key Points
This is how it ended for a 34-year-old Tunisian, a regular resident in Italy but already known to the police for previous convictions for crimes against the person.
Yesterday evening, accompanied by his lawyer, the man spontaneously showed up at the Sparanise Carabinieri Station, where he was formally charged with serious and aggravated bodily harm. A few hours earlier, the military of the Capua Company had tracked him down in Naples, the city where he had taken refuge after the bloody crime.
The reconstruction of the attack
The victim, a man from Pignataro Maggiore, had intervened to make peace between the Tunisian and a friend during a heated argument that had broken out over passion. During the fight, the attacker allegedly grabbed a kitchen knife, stabbing the 34-year-old in the abdomen, who was then rushed to the surgery department of the hospital in Caserta. His condition, although serious, is not believed to be life-threatening.
After the formal procedures, the Tunisian was reported at liberty, but the story could have further developments, considering the man's previous convictions. The investigation is now in the hands of the competent Prosecutor's Office, which will evaluate whether to contest further charges.
The questions remain open: what sparked the fight and why the man decided to strike with such violence. Meanwhile, the community of Sparanise is following the developments of the case with apprehension.

It is very sad that a fight has escalated into such serious violence, but it is always difficult to understand what drives people to behave in this way. I hope there is clarity and justice for the victim and also for the aggressor.
