Patient stabs psychiatrist 40 times in Italy, killing her

ROME — Investigators in Italy say a patient stabbed his psychiatrist some 40 times, killing the woman during their appointment at a public health facility. Police said the attacker, a man in his 40s with a history of drug and alcohol abuse and a criminal record for drug dealing, was subdued by a colleague of 53-year-old psychiatrist Paola Labriola. She had been meeting privately with the patient Wednesday in Bari, a city in the southern region of Puglia. Prosecutors said investigators were examining the attacker's medical records to learn why he was under treatment. No motive for the attack was immediately known.
