Homicide in home in Thiene, suspect under same roof arrested
A dispute between flatmates turned to tragedy on Thursday evening in Thiene, in the province of Vicenza. According to rainews.it, Dominic Boahen, 40 years old and a Ghanaian citizen, was stabbed inside the apartment on via Delle Pastorelle at around 20:00. Resuscitation attempts were unsuccessful.
The arrested man is a fellow national aged 53, registered as the property owner. When rescue workers from the Suem and the carabinieri arrived at the scene, the man turned himself in spontaneously without offering resistance. He is accused of aggravated voluntary manslaughter and is being held in custody.
The two lived together and were long-time friends, but neighbours — who raised the alarm — report that this was not the first episode of tension. According to witnesses, alcohol consumed by both may have played a role in the argument that resulted in Boahen's death.
The carabinieri are reconstructing the dynamics and circumstances of the crime. An autopsy will clarify the number of wounds and whether the victim attempted to defend himself. A kitchen blade with traces of blood was recovered at the apartment. The apartment has been sequestered.
