Domestic fatality in Villaverde, Madrid

In yet another case of domestic violence, a 79 year old man in Madrid has stabbed and killed his 77 year old wife and then tried to take his own life with the same weapon.

Police were called to a house in calle Nuestra Señora de Begoña in Villaverde where they found the 77 year old woman dead as a result of a stab wound to the neck.

The alleged attacker, her husband, then apparently tried to take his own life using the same weapon and is now in hospital suffering from a stomach wound.

There was no prior history of abuse or violence within the family.
