He had just left his home when a car hit him and hit him.

The accident took place this morning in via Sulcis, in the Monte Rosello district of Sassari: the man, a 70-year-old local, was hit while crossing the street, not far from the kindergarten.

It was perhaps a moment of distraction, also thanks to the sun's rays that blocked his view, but the driver of the car told local police officers that he had not seen the pedestrian crossing the roadway.

Everything happened in a few moments, moments of fear for the man, rescued by passers-by who witnessed the accident and proceeded to ask for an ambulance.

The 118 health team arrived on the spot and gave him the first treatments before accompanying him to the Santissima Annunziata civil hospital for investigations.

The 70-year-old suffered a shoulder trauma and some hand injuries. His condition is not serious.
