An overnight attack occurred at a construction site on the iron bridge over the former Orientale Sarda highway, in the Villaputzu area. Unknown individuals set fire to a mini-excavator, a bobcat, and a container used as an office for a company headquartered in Agrigento. The damage is currently being assessed. The investigation is being coordinated by Major Massimo Meloni, commander of the San Vito Company.
The alarm was raised by the construction site guard, accompanied by three other people—two of them workers—who were nearby enjoying a late-night snack. They reportedly noticed the fire only later and reported it to emergency services.
The area, completely fenced off, shows no obvious signs of forced entry or other evidence that could identify the perpetrators. The Carabinieri station has initiated the necessary technical investigations and notified the competent judicial authorities.
