90-year-old beats his wife with a stick to death

The attack occurred on January 3rd at the couple's home in Mascali (Caitania), where Salvatore Plumari attacked his wife, Concetta Di Pasquale, seems for trivial reasons.

The victim was taken to Polyklinika in Catania with numerous brain fractures and trauma, where he died two days later.

The couple were originally from Regalbuto (Enna), but for years they had moved to the Citantese.

The dispute between husband and wife would arise for futile reasons, Italian media write. After the attack, the man was arrested and sent to prison, but then, given his age, he was sent to a rehabilitation clinic.
