The injuries sustained by a 10-year-old boy admitted to the Santobono hospital in Naples proved to be too serious. The little one, residing in Scafati, in the Salerno area, threw alcohol into the fireplace of the house and the backfire burned him.

The tragedy occurred about ten days ago, but the news was only released today.

The child underwent three operations, the doctors did everything to save his life but every attempt was useless: the burns, from forehead to feet, were very extensive and deep.
