He did not have time to arrive at San Francesco di Nuoro: the fifty-year-old - and not thirty, as learned at first - from the province of Oristano died on the way to the hospital, involved in the crash of the flatbed van he was driving, exited off the road at kilometer 30 of the 131 DCN, in the direction of Abbasanta ( HERE THE NEWS ),
There were three of them on board, all workers: another of the occupants was also injured. The vehicle, around 17, was near the crossroads for Orotelli when it lost grip, perhaps also due to the pouring rain, crashing into the embankment along the state road. It may have even overturned. The impact was very violent.
According to an initial reconstruction, the worker was thrown out of the passenger compartment, ending the tragic flight against a stone.
When help arrived, he went into cardiac arrest. The 118 rescuers carried out the first resuscitation attempts on the spot. Then the desperate ambulance ride to the hospital in the capital of Barbagia. Which unfortunately turned out to be useless: the heart of the fifty-year-old stopped beating before arriving at his destination.
Meanwhile, the firefighters were at work on the scene of the accident, to make the roadway safe, and the agents of the traffic police, who regulated the traffic and then carried out the surveys.
