A 14-year-old student was reported for unlawfully carrying a weapon after a kitchen knife was found in his backpack at a school in Terzigno, in the province of Naples.
Carabinieri went to the school, seized the knife, and formally reported the boy. His mother arrived at the school after the intervention.
According to initial checks reported by Il Mattino, the episode followed a serious argument between the student and a classmate the previous day. The article does not state what the argument was about, nor does it establish whether the knife was intended to be used against anyone.
The report places the case within a wider enforcement picture: from January through August, Carabinieri in the province of Naples seized 150 improvised weapons and 78 firearms, arrested 44 people for unlawful possession or carrying of weapons, and reported 138 people.
No further details have been reported about the school involved or any subsequent judicial or disciplinary outcome.
