Joe Perrino struggles between life and death in the intensive care unit of the Brotzu. Singer and artist, born Nicola Macciò, 58, was involved in a bad accident this morning in viale Trieste , in Cagliari .
Around 11, Macciò was riding his motorcycle, heading towards Viale Sant'Avendrace, when a car in front of him braked to let some pedestrians cross.
It is not yet clear if the singer hit the vehicle or if he lost control in an attempt to avoid it: he crashed to the ground, suffering very serious injuries.
Rescued by a 118 ambulance team, given his condition he was intubated and transported in red code to Brotzu. Immediate transfer to the intensive care unit: the prognosis is reserved. Nicola Macciò – Joe Perrino – is in danger of life.
Many in these hours are praying for the frontman of the Mellowtones first and then of the White Elephant. Roles covered before embarking on a solo career with underworld songs and a passage, in the early 2000s, to the management of a club in the Castle.
