Husband and wife were found dead in a house in Agropoli, in the province of Salerno.
The victims are 63 years old, the man, and 43 years old, the woman.
Investigations are underway by the Carabinieri of the Agropoli company.
We are awaiting the arrival of the medical examiner to ascertain the cause of death.
No hypothesis is ruled out: one possibility is that it could be a murder-suicide.
According to initial reports, the man, who is 63 years old, a pizza chef, stabbed to death his wife, 43 years old, a bank employee, in the house in via Doninzetti, in Agropoli, and then took his own life with her weapon.
His 13-year-old daughter was in the house but, as far as we know, she was sleeping.
The alarm was raised by the woman's mother who turned to the Carabinieri after seeing that her daughter was not answering her phone calls.
