Foggia, December 1, 2020 – Mario renzulli, the 38-year-old man stabbed to death on a farm in the Manfredonia countryside, in the Macchia Rotondo district, would have been killed by a seven year old boy to defend him and his mother. The baby’s mother told her lawyer and the carabinieri. The role of the child, the son of the victim’s partner, is examined by investigators. The boy is hospitalized at the Policlinico di Foggia due to injuries to his mouth.

“Came home drunk and he began to infer about his partner first. The little boy would have intervened in the discussion in defense of the mother. To escape his stepfather, he first took refuge in his bedroom, then was chased by the man he ran into the kitchen with. There he took a knife and, after being joined by the 38-year-old, hit him in the abdomen “. Angelo Salvemini, the lawyer for the boy’s family, reported. The reconstruction is still being examined by investigators, who questioned the woman as well as the child. The latter was also treated at Foggia hospital for some injuries to his face that were probably caused by his stepfather.
