Rome, 19 Sept. (LaPresse) – A digital search has been carried out on the mobile phone of the 13-year-old who, yesterday in Rome, attacked a teacher at a secondary school in Centocelle, as well as on his mother’s phone.

Investigators aim to reconstruct the minor’s contacts prior to the attack and to ascertain whether anyone may have incited him. The social media profile set up by the boy, which has four followers, is also under scrutiny. Before stabbing the teacher, the teenager went live on social media. The digital investigation also aims to identify any potential instigators.
