A 46-year-old worker from Lanciano (Chieti) died after being hit by a metal pipe while he was working with a press in an automotive related factory in Val di Sangro. The accident occurred this morning.

According to an initial reconstruction, the worker was working with a press when he was hit in the abdomen by a metal pipe ejected from the machine. Having immediately appeared in very serious conditions, the man died shortly after, despite the intervention of 118 and the air ambulance from Pescara.

The machinery was seized by the judiciary.
