In Olot, Girona, Mossos d’Esquadra are probing the violent death of a 37-year-old woman. A son found her body, and the father was also injured in the apartment they shared, according to a report from Diari de Girona, a media outlet within the Prensa Ibérica group. Early investigators say the case is being treated as a possible femicide.
Initial details indicate the husband may have harmed himself after stabbing the woman. The couple had three children and had lived for years in the Garrotxa capital. This line of inquiry is being considered as the investigation unfolds, with authorities carefully piecing together what happened. (Source: Diari de Girona)
