A man was arrested for allegedly murdering his mother in a fit of anger over her “excessive nagging,” police said Wednesday.

They said the suspect, 37, stabbed his mother to death at a house in Cheongdo, North Gyeongsang Province, on Dec. 29. He was caught there two days later.

He told police her “excessive nagging” at him was the key motive for the crime.
