A drama. A man went to the police in Saint-Étienne-du-Rouvray (Normandy) in the morning of this Friday, January 27, and confessed to the murder of his wife, whom he allegedly killed with a saucepan.

According to information from 76actu, which has been confirmed by the public prosecutor’s office, this 78-year-old man reported the murder of his 74-year-old wife to the police earlier in the day.

When the municipal police arrived at the suspect’s home on rue Colette, they discovered his lifeless body on a bed with signs of a beating to the head.

When prosecutors stated that the man had “no prior history of violence” to begin with, an investigation led by departmental security was launched to shed light on the matter.
