Two minors and a young man of about 20 years old from Foggia died in a road accident that occurred in the evening a few kilometers from Potenza.
The young fans of the satanelli team were returning from Basilicata where the Apulian team drew 1-1 in the match valid for the ninth day of group C of the C series.
The accident involved a minivan carrying Foggia fans and a car: the two vehicles collided head-on.
A RAI Puglia camera operator who rushed to the scene to document the accident had his camera broken, so much so that he had to film the footage with his cell phone, under cover of law enforcement.
