A decisive intuition, combined with the courage and professionalism of two Carabinieri, made the difference, averting a tragedy . It happened last night in Ossi , where two off-duty soldiers saved two young brothers who had been poisoned by gas inside their completely saturated home .
The alarm was raised when the parents, unable to contact their children and worried about their pet's sudden illness, called for help from two Carabinieri officers, their neighbors. It didn't take long for the two to understand the gravity of the situation: despite the extremely high risk of explosion due to the high concentration of gas in the air , they didn't hesitate. They forced open the front door and entered the apartment, finding the two brothers semi-conscious.
Quickly and calmly, they dragged them outside the house, bringing them to safety and providing first aid while awaiting the arrival of the 118 ambulances and the fire department. The boys were rushed to the Sassari Civil Hospital . Although intoxicated, their life is not in danger. They were subsequently transferred by helicopter to the Cagliari hospital for treatment in a hyperbaric chamber.
Firefighters then identified the technical fault inside the building and managed to secure the entire building. The city administration thanked the doctors, firefighters, and military personnel who, with courage and professionalism, prevented the tragedy.
