A 74-year-old man, Enrico Porru, was found lifeless inside his home, in via Cavour, in the heart of the city of Porto Torres. Some relatives, in the last hours, have tried several times to contact him without receiving an answer. Hence the decision to go directly to the house, an apartment on the first floor of a building, near the intersection with Corso Vittorio Emanuele.
The phone rang in vain. The alarm was immediately raised with the police and rescue services . The firefighters of the local detachment arrived on site and, after having tried in vain to enter from the main entrance, using a ladder reached the terrace on the first floor, forcing the door. Inside was the lifeless body of the pensioner, near his bed, dead from a sudden heart attack.
In the emergency also the health workers of 118, who did nothing but confirm the death . Also present were the agents of the local police.
