Another night of unsuccessful searches for little Mattia , the 8-year-old boy snatched from his mother's arms by the wave of mud and water after the two got out of their car in Castellone di Suasa (Ancona), one of the municipalities struck by the flood that brought the Marche to its knees.
He is also looking for the second person missing during the wave of bad weather that hit the area on the night of September 15, Brunella Chiù, a 56-year-old woman .
There are 11 victims ascertained so far between Pianello di Ostra, Senigallia, Barbara, Trecastelli, Rosora and Serra de 'Conti.
Today the head of civil protection Fabrizio Curcio will carry out inspections in the affected areas, starting from the province of Pesaro (Cantiano, Serra Sant'Abbondio, Frontone, Pergola), and then move on to that of Ancona. In the afternoon he should then participate in a meeting at the Rescue Coordination Center (CCS) at the Marche Regional Civil Protection.
Yesterday the father Tiziano Luconi spoke, separated from the baby's mother, Silvia Mereu, originally from Urzulei . “ I want to believe that Mattia is alive , it is a hope that helps me to move forward. Maybe my little gnome is clinging to a plant, ”he said. "I won't leave until we find him."
THE INVESTIGATIONS
Hundreds of rescuers engaged without sparing themselves in research. But the activity of investigators is also continuing to understand if there are criminal responsibilities in the disaster .
The Carabinieri have heard the representative of the Civil Protection of the Marche who is in charge of publishing the weather reports, the goal is to reconstruct the facts starting from the alert given, a yellow alert for some of the affected areas and green for the others .
The carabinieri also carried out a helicopter overflight on the places of the disaster. And the analysis from above of the course of the Misa and Nevola rivers has already revealed that the river sections upstream, very small, were not enough to contain the rainwater and in the river beds there are trees and large trunks that have made as a plug to the bridges, under which no more water has passed, thus creating basins which are then overflowed . Two hours of video that will be delivered to the magistrates and which will be viewed to analyze the state of the embankments and especially the maintenance of the rivers themselves.
The file of the Ancona Public Prosecutor's Office for culpable flooding and multiple manslaughter still remains against unknown persons, but it would only be a matter of a few days.
