The driver of the car that hit three police officers last night in Rome while they were investigating an accident is an off-duty carabiniere. The soldier tested positive for alcohol. The conditions of the most serious officer, despite having lost a lot of blood, are currently stable. He is hospitalized in intensive care at the San Camillo hospital where his left leg was amputated.
According to initial information, the carabiniere had a blood alcohol level of 1.9, significantly above the legal limit.
The soldier, who apparently belongs to the ROS, stopped to provide assistance.
