A 33-year-old man was arrested near
Naples on Monday on suspicion of killing his 55-year-old mother
after a violent row between the two.
The pair shared a house in Torre del Greco, after the woman
split with the man's father, police said.
The man had a "difficult past", police said.
Neighbours called police after hearing the two shouting at each
other.
An autopsy has been ordered.
The man was said to have been involved in drugs and petty crime
in the past.
Neighbours said the mother and son argued frequently, mostly
about money.
