A man and a woman were seriously burned in an explosion triggered by a gas leak in a house in the Pattada countryside.

The accident occurred in the early afternoon in the Sa Raga area: a gas leak, probably due to a malfunctioning cylinder, triggered a fire in the house. According to initial investigations by the firefighters and the Carabinieri of the Ozieri Company, the two people opened the door to the room where the fire had started and were hit by a backfire.
