Horrible gesture in the San Gavino park, one of the play areas a few steps from the center of Porto Torres. A young man grabbed a bird with his hand and decapitated it, cutting off its head without mercy.

It happened on the afternoon of Wednesday 22 May in the area reserved for children, near a kiosk bar. A game of unprecedented cruelty, played in front of some people present.

Terrible images taken with your cell phone and later shared in chats. A behavior that attracted an avalanche of negative comments on the boy for a gesture that was considered useless and gratuitous barbarity.

Someone among those present shouted somewhere between shocked, incredulous and amused. The episode has not gone unnoticed by animal protection associations who declare themselves ready to report the serious fact. There is discussion about the reason for gratuitous violence against animals, a crime condemned with severe penalties.
