The old man has been arrested and will be brought before a prosecutor tomorrow.

The old man has been arrested and will be brought before a prosecutor tomorrow.
The story was revealed on Wednesday night, when the gendarmerie was called in to intervene in a case of domestic violence: the wife of the 70-year-old man called the police saying that her son had beaten his father in the town of Malberspack. , 30 kilometers from Mulhouse.
The 39-year-old son admitted to police that hit the father and they took him to a hospital to see if his health condition allowed them to detain him. On the way, their son told them that he was not feeling well and that he hadn’t eaten lately.
At the hospital, the doctors were shocked by his weakness, which recalled “images of prisoners in concentration camps.” The 39-year-old told them that he returned to his parental home about a year ago after losing his job. His father, believing that his son was doing nothing to make ends meet, decided to lock him in the attic, forbidding him to go down to eat. Because he was hungry, he secretly tried to get out of the attic at night to eat the leftovers. But his father noticed and denied him access. Having reached his limits, he ended up beating up his father, who was under the influence of alcohol.
The son will not be prosecuted for hitting his father, according to APE-MPE.
Neighbors of the family, in this town of 500 inhabitants, said they had not understood that the 39-year-old man had returned to his father’s home.
