Another tragedy at work, this time in Chietino.

A 49-year-old died after being crushed between a truck and a trailer.

The accident occurred in Ortona. The man, owner of a trucking company, was carrying a load of flour for the former Alimonti mill and was trying to hitch the tractor to the trailer: for reasons considered accidental, the trailer, which was sloping and loaded with flour, collapsed it is moved by pressing it against the cab of the engine.

Some colleagues tried to revive the 49-year-old: the 118 air ambulance arrived on the spot, but for the truck driver, who presumably died of crushing, there was nothing more they could do.
