No one in the port knew him. "A night watchman? Perhaps he had recently arrived and was working for a specific vessel," speculate the fishermen of the small fleet occupying the Millelire dock, referring to the unfortunate 35-year-old, originally from Mazara del Vallo, who lost his life between Thursday night and Friday in circumstances that are still unclear .
The young man, who according to initial information was employed as a guard in the same area of the port, where large fishing boats dock, was found dead inside a vessel.
911 was immediately called, but all attempts to provide assistance were futile: the doctor who arrived on the scene could only pronounce him dead. The Carabinieri also arrived at the scene of the tragedy and began an investigation to determine the cause of death.
Initial investigations have revealed no signs of violence or evidence of criminal activity: instead, investigators suspect a sudden illness or, according to another hypothesis being examined, a possible overdose.
After recovery, the man's body was transferred to the morgue of the Alghero Civil Hospital and made available to the judicial authorities for routine examinations. An autopsy may provide further information.
