Carabinieri in Baiano arrested a local 48-year-old man on the morning of 5 November 2026 on suspicion of mistreatment within the family. The arrest was made in flagrante following an emergency call about a violent domestic dispute.
Emergency Call and Intervention
According to the reports, the intervention followed a call to the 112 emergency number reporting a violent argument inside a home in Baiano.
Personnel from the Baiano Carabinieri station and the Radiomobile unit responded to the address. Inside the residence, officers found the man in an agitated state. The reports state that he had allegedly caused damage to furnishings inside the home and was possibly affected by alcohol.
ANSA further reports that the alleged violence involved an attack on the man's wife.
Transfer to Bellizzi Irpino
Following the arrest, the 48-year-old was taken to the Casa Circondariale di Bellizzi Irpino.
All three reports state that he was placed at the disposal of the Avellino Prosecutor's Office for the next procedural steps.
Current Status of the Case
The reports describe the case as remaining at the preliminary-investigation stage. No final determination of criminal responsibility has been made.
The arrested person is therefore presumed innocent until a final conviction, as stated in the local press accounts of the incident.
