A tragedy that moved Villasimius and Castiadas. Giovanni Fadda, 71 years old from Villasimius, died this morning crushed by his off-road vehicle, immediately after recovering his big game dog that was lost yesterday during a wild boar hunt.

According to the first reconstructions, Fadda has reached the old coastal road that leads from Villasimius to Castiadas, entering the mountain.

Here he met a shepherd, who had seen the dog and who showed him the way to follow. And in the area the hunter from Villasimius would have found the animal, which he recovered, then returning to his Land Rover. The vehicle, perhaps due to the lack of the handbrake, would have moved backwards and crushed the man.

After the accident, the elderly man was rescued by some farmers: he was initially conscious, but then his conditions worsened and he went into cardiac arrest.

The carabinieri from Villasimius and Castiadas and the 118 staff then arrived on the spot. Attempts to save his life, however, were in vain.

After the ritual investigations, with the authorization of the judicial authority, the man's body was returned to his family for the funeral.
