Three young men in their early twenties from Assemini were aboard the car that skidded off the road on Tuesday at 9:45 PM on Via Sant'Ambrogio in Uta . Michele Murgia died from the injuries and trauma he sustained when he was ejected from the car, which skidded before crashing into a guardrail and a tree and ending up in a canal.

Riccardo Mascia was taken to the Policlinico hospital in a state of shock, while Vincenzo Usai had disappeared without a trace , having fled the scene of the tragedy in the grip of the deepest despair.

On Tuesday night, the Carabinieri waited for him near the house where he lives with his parents in Assemini: he did not resist, he explained his state of mind, that of someone who has seen a dear friend die before his eyes, and said that he was about to be accompanied to the Carabinieri barracks by his parents .

The Cagliari Prosecutor's Office has opened a case of vehicular homicide against persons unknown, currently . The aim is to determine who was driving the small car , a Fiat Panda, which was reported stolen in Quartu just hours before the accident.

Neither Mascia nor Usai clarified this detail to investigators during their initial interrogations. In any case , neither Mascia nor Murgia ever obtained a driving license .
