Tragedy at work this afternoon in the Forlì area . A 50-year-old farmer died while working on a plot of land in the Ricò district of the municipality of Meldola.

The man, for reasons still unclear, was suddenly thrown from the tractor he was driving. He accidentally struck a moving tiller, a tool used to break up soil, that the tractor was towing.

There was nothing that could be done for the farmer: he practically died instantly from the devastating injuries he suffered.

When the alarm was raised, the 118 paramedics rushed to the scene and could only confirm the death. The firefighters and the Carabinieri are conducting investigations to reconstruct the exact dynamics of what happened.
