Police in Grottaglie arrested a 54-year-old man suspected of injuring his ex-partner with a knife and of issuing aggravated threats. Officers were called to the local hospital after a woman arrived with a deep cut to her right hand. Police later learned the injuries occurred during a dispute between the two in the man’s home, linked to their relationship. The woman told officers she had gone to address the end of their relationship and tried to leave when the situation turned violent. She alleged the suspect, described as intoxicated, picked up a kitchen knife during the argument and stabbed her. During a home search, police recovered and seized a knife believed to have been used in the incident. The case documents were then sent to the competent judicial authority, and the man was arrested and ordered to remain under house arrest at his residence. The investigation is ongoing, and the suspect remains under the status of arrested as police pursue further steps in the case.
