A friend of the couple, who was in the house at the time, intervened immediately and prevented the tragedy. He stepped between the two and managed to restrain the aggressor’s arm, preventing him from lighting the lighter until the carabinieri arrived.
At the same time, the victim herself had alerted law enforcement, who went to the scene without delay. The carabinieri neutralized the 47-year-old and seized his lighter, thus preventing an incident with tragic consequences.
Fortunately, no one was injured in the incident. By order of the Ivrea Prosecutor’s Office, which is leading the investigation, the arrested man was taken to a detention facility, where he will remain at the disposal of the judicial authorities.
