A two-year-old boy who died
near Frosinone south of Rome Wednesday was strangled by his
mother, police said Thursday.
The woman has been arrested and charged with murder and is
now in jail, police said.
She had told police the boy was run over by a runaway driver.
According to an initial reconstruction, the woman strangled
the 28-month-old boy and covered his mouth to stop him
breathing.
The incident took place at Piedimonte San Germano.
