A 59-year-old worker from Lotzorai was burned in the countryside on the western outskirts of the town.

According to an initial reconstruction of the facts, the 59-year-old was cleaning up his land when, after setting fire to a pile of brushwood, the flames first reached a petrol tank and then hit the worker himself.

A 118 team intervened on the spot and asked for the Areus helicopter to be sent.

Echo Lima 1, coming from the Olbia base, landed in a field in front of the land of the person involved in the accident, whose conditions, however, were assessed as reassuring by the doctor, so much so that the injured person did not need to be transferred to Sassari burn center but by ambulance to the Nostra Signora di Lanusei hospital where the health personnel took care of him.
