A man was found lifeless last night on a boat moored in the port of Alghero .

He is a 35-year-old originally from Mazara del Vallo , who worked in the facility as a night watchman.

The dramatic discovery was made by the 35-year-old's colleagues, who alerted 118 , with rescuers who, however, were only able to confirm his death.

The Carabinieri of the local Company were also on site and have started investigations.

The circumstances of the death are unclear and little is being disclosed by investigators: there is talk of a probable illness or a possible overdose.

The Sassari Prosecutor's Office has opened an investigation and ordered an autopsy on the body.
