Tragedy this morning at the Ecocentro of Portoscuso, in Sulcis. A 58-year-old citizen of Portoscuso, Fabrizio Cherchi, was the victim of an accident in the warehouse where waste to be recycled is thrown. This was ascertained by the carabinieri who are dealing with the case.
According to a first reconstruction, the man, after some work in the house and outside the house, went to the Ecocenter to get rid of some grass clippings. He autonomously unloaded the branches from his pick-up into the compactor when the machine started working and he fell inside. The workers who were not far away immediately blocked the machine, but for the 58-year-old there was nothing to do.
Useless attempts to revive him by the doctors of 118 arrived immediately on the spot. Now it will be the carabinieri and the specialists of the Spresal to clarify the exact dynamics of the accident and ascertain any responsibilities. The compactor, meanwhile, has already been seized.
