Night of apprehension for the fate of a thirty-year-old that just ended. He had gotten lost in an inaccessible area, with thick vegetation, in the locality of Rio San Girolamo, in Capoterra : he was saved after seven hours of work.
The boy had lost his bearings, perhaps also because of the dark. The firefighters were alerted around 8pm . The mobilization was impressive: an ordinary team arrived in the area, the Saf (Alpine River Speleo) unit, Tas (Applied Rescue Topography) personnel and the Sapr (Aircraft Piloted Remote) with drones.
The rescuers, in telephone contact, located the missing person via the GPS coordinates of the smartphone and after a journey of about ten kilometers in the inaccessible area they reached and recovered him: he only had a few grazes. The surgery ended at around 4. The mayor of the municipality of Capoterra was also present on site.
