Gravina di Catania arrested for stalking after trying to reconcile with ex-wife

Explain to me briefly the following article:

A forty-nine-year-old man from Misterbianco was arrested by the Carabinieri of Gravina di Catania after attempting to assault his ex-wife in the hallway of the condominium where the woman lives. The man had gone to the ex-wife’s home to meet their three children and took the opportunity to corner her and try to kiss her against her will. The woman’s screams attracted the attention of the neighbors, who promptly called the Carabinieri.

When the military arrived, the man was still trying to embrace the woman to convince her to come back to him. After immobilizing and securing him, the Carabinieri listened to the victim’s account. The woman explained that, in the last five months, her ex-husband had resumed harassing her with phone calls, messages, and stalking, plunging her back into the nightmare of persecution: the man already had a conviction for stalking dating back to 2018, but seemed to have accepted the end of the marriage, so much so that the woman had resumed maintaining a civil relationship with him to allow him to see the children. However, this trust was betrayed, culminating in the violent episode in the building’s hallway.

Given the repeated oppressive behaviors and the last episode of attempted violence, the judicial authority validated the arrest, ordering the man to be placed under house arrest at his home in Misterbianco.
