A man intentionally hit his former
wife with his car and then stabbed her in front of their son's
school on Tuesday before he was arrested by Carabinieri police
in Soriso near Novara, investigative sources said.
The man, a Senegalese citizen, attacked his former wife, 39, who
is also from Senegal, by intentionally running her over with
his Fiat station wagon car and then, once she was lying on the
ground, stabbing her, according to the sources.
A number of passersby rushed to the woman's rescue and called
the police who arrested the 40-year-old on attempted murder
charges.
The woman is in critical condition at the Santissima Trinità
Hospital in Borgomanero.
