He fell ill during a soccer match, fell to the ground and died.
Last night, Vincenzo Re, 49, from Agrigento lost his life.
It happened on a pitch in the seaside village of San Leone where friends and those in charge of the sports facility called 118. The ambulance arrived within minutes, but there was nothing they could do because the victim, son and brother of two well-known lawyers from Agrigento, he passed away before arriving at the hospital.
The man did not suffer from any pathology.
Just 24 hours earlier in Favara, in the gymnasium of the "Guarino" school in via Capitano Basile, a 12-year-old boy, Davide Licata, had died.
The little boy fell ill and passed out while he was playing basketball.
For this tragedy, the Agrigento prosecutor's office has opened an investigation and the certificates of sound constitution and fitness for the child's sporting activity will be acquired.
