Police in Milan, Italy, arrested Renzo Micalat, a 19-year-old Filipino in the stabbing of his roommate.

SAN FRANCISCO – A jobless 19-year-old Filipino was arrested in Milan, Italy, September 24 for stabbing and wounding an Indian flatmate over the victim’s “stinky” shoes, the Milan police said.

The victim, a 47-year-old Indian man, identified only as A.S., was taken to Milan’s Niguarda hospital where he underwent surgery and suffered four heart attacks. He is still in a critical condition. He was found by police in a pool of blood at the untidy flat, with deep stab wounds to his chest and an arm, according a report by Libero 24X7.

The Filipino, Renzo Micalat, was hiding in the attic, had allegedly rinsed the blood off the knife used in the attack and was trying to change his bloodstained clothes when police arrived. Some reports give his name as Renzo Miclat.

Micalat allegedly launched the frenzied attack after becoming enraged by a pair of shoes belonging to the Indian, which he claimed “stank,” according to investigators.

Micalat has an Italian residency permit and both he and the Indian have no criminal convictions.
