Serious accident last night in Piazza Sant'Antonio in Nardò, in the province of Lecce, where a 14-year-old was injured while trying to detonate a large firecracker.
The episode occurred around 20 in the square in front of the church, where several teenagers usually gather.
The explosion, perhaps delayed, involved the minor, who fell to the ground in pain, touching his face with his hands.
Rescued by the 118 health workers, the 14-year-old was transported to the Vito Fazzi in Lecce where he is currently hospitalized in intensive care, with injuries to his left eye and right hand.
On the spot also the agents of the police station of Nardò and the carabinieri of the local station, who dealt with the findings of the case.
