A 58-year-old man was injured at the height of a violent family argument in the countryside of Le Cannella, in the area of Isola Capo Rizzuto (Crotone). According to initial reconstructions, a heated argument between uncle and nephew would have degenerated to the point that the latter would have pulled out a knife, hitting the relative with a deep slash in the left side. The 118 health workers from the local station arrived on site and requested the intervention of the air ambulance to ensure the quickest possible transfer to the Crotone hospital.
At the moment the injured person’s condition is considered serious but stable, while medical personnel are carrying out all the necessary checks to verify whether the stab wound has compromised internal organs. Several police patrols reached the site of the attack to start investigations. The Carabinieri are now busy reconstructing the exact dynamics of the affair and clarifying the reasons that led to the outbreak of the violent quarrel between the two family members.
