Salerno, 53 year old kills his 85 year old mother: stopped after calling 112

First he called 112, reporting what he had done. He was then tracked down and identified by the police while he was wandering on foot through the streets of the town of Pellezzano, in the Salerno area, where the episode occurred.

Thus, a 53-year-old was arrested on charges of aggravated murder after he allegedly killed his 85-year-old mother during the night. According to the reconstruction of the investigators, the man strangled the mother due to previous family disagreements.

The crime occurred while the woman was resting in the house where the two lived together in Via Nicotera, from where her son later moved away. The carabinieri of the Mercato San Severino company intervened on site coordinated by the Salerno prosecutor's office.
