A policeman shot and wounded a 19-year-old who allegedly had a fight with his son shortly before.
The episode took place last night in Santa Maria a Vico in the Caserta area.
The public official, a 49-year-old who serves in the Neapolitan area, is accused of aggravated injuries.
According to what was ascertained by the carabinieri, the policeman did not use his service pistol, but a clandestine weapon.
He allegedly fired twice, hitting the 19-year-old in the leg, who was then taken to hospital and discharged with a ten-day prognosis.
After a few hours the carabinieri stopped the policeman who is now under house arrest.
Investigations are underway to reconstruct the exact dynamics of the facts.
