Ferrara high school stabbing attempt leads to arrest
A man has been arrested following an attempted stabbing at the Liceo Ariosto high school in Ferrara, Italy. The incident occurred on Wednesday morning around 10:15 AM in the school bathrooms.
A 15-year-old student was targeted by the assailant, who used a large knife. The student managed to defend himself and force the attacker to flee, sustaining only minor injuries to his hands and abdomen. He was treated at the Arcispedale Sant’Anna di Cona hospital and subsequently discharged.
Carabinieri officers identified and arrested a local unemployed man in the afternoon. During a search, authorities recovered a weapon sheath compatible with the knife used in the attack. The suspect was taken to a healthcare facility for arrest pending a validation hearing. Investigations are ongoing to determine the motive, though authorities have stated there was no known prior relationship between the victim and the suspect.
