A 35-year-old man has been arrested in Valencia for allegedly killing his son's psychologist, a 33-year-old professional, in the office located in the Marxalenes neighborhood.

The incident occurred at a speech therapy and psychology center on Ingeniero de la Cierva street. According to initial reports, the detainee took his son to a session and, upon returning earlier than expected, found the child with his trousers down. The father interpreted this as abuse and confronted the professional.
The victim repeatedly denied the abuse allegations. The alleged assailant demanded to see security camera footage, although it has not been confirmed if the office had an internal recording system. Faced with a refusal, the man used a bladed weapon to kill the psychologist.
After the assault, the detainee took his son and went to his home, where he was arrested by the National Police. The Homicide unit is investigating to clarify the exact circumstances of the incident.
