Orta di Atella - A woman from Orta di Atella experienced a nightmarish chase overnight. She ran through the streets of the town center in terror, desperately trying to escape her husband, who was threatening and attacking her. The Carabinieri intervened in time, apprehending the man and saving the woman.

The incident occurred last night, when the 34-year-old began cursing his wife. The argument quickly escalated. The man, already known to law enforcement, first attacked his wife inside the home, then chased her outside, continuing to threaten her as his youngest daughter watched in terror.

Alerted by a report, officers from the local station arrived immediately. They found the man still agitated and detained him. During the search, they discovered that the 34-year-old was carrying a stick and an axe, weapons he could have used to inflict harm. Both items were seized.

At the conclusion of the proceedings, the arrest for aggravated domestic violence and illegal possession of a weapon was validated. The prosecutor on duty ordered the offender's transfer to the Santa Maria Capua Vetere prison, where he remains at the disposal of the judicial authorities.

This episode adds to a long list of domestic violence incidents that have blighted homes in Campania. Statistics show a growing phenomenon, but the Carabinieri emphasize the importance of timely reporting. "Immediate intervention prevented irreparable consequences," they comment. Local presence and a rapid response remain essential to protecting victims and the most vulnerable.
