A 76-year-old woman was killed this evening in a house in via Tavernelle, in Capaccio Paestum (Salerno).
The carabinieri arrested the 16-year-old niece.
According to an initial reconstruction, during a quarrel, the girl hit her grandmother with a knife in the back.
The soldiers of the Agropoli company and those of the operational department of the provincial command of Salerno, directed by the commanders Fabiola Garello and Luigi Aurelli, are working to reconstruct the motive for the murder.
From what has been learned, the girl has not provided any explanation for what happened.
During the dispute, she sustained a minor injury to her arm for which she was transported to the hospital.
The weapon used was found and confiscated.
