A suspected was arrested on
Monday after two judges were stabbed in a Perugia civil court,
sources said.
The victims were not seriously injured, the sources said.
Judge Francesca Altrui was stabbed in her office, and her
colleague Umberto Rana was stabbed when he came to her defence.
A clerk, who was not named, was also slightly hurt by the
knife-wielding assailant.
The attacker was said to be a 53-year-old man, Roberto
Ferraci from Spello in Umbria, who was also slightly hurt in the
attack. He was reported to have used two large knives.
The reason for the attack is believed to be linked to a
bankruptcy case.
