While preparing dinner together, a 22-year-old Syrian stabbed his mother (44). The father had left the kitchen only moments before.
At around 7.45 p.m., the 44-year-old resident British citizen and her son (22) were in their shared flat in Graz. The woman’s 45-year-old ex-husband, also a Syrian citizen, was also in the kitchen.
The mother was preparing dinner and cutting vegetables with a kitchen knife. When her ex-husband left the kitchen, the 22-year-old Syrian became violent towards his mother. During the altercation, the son probably got hold of the kitchen knife. The woman fought off the attack and suffered severe cuts on her hands. The son only let go of his mother when his father became aware of the kitchen dispute and pulled him away from his mother. The woman was taken to the Regional Hospital in Graz by the Red Cross with serious injuries. Syrian was arrested. It is still unclear why he attacked his own mother – he will be questioned today.
