Local police officers and carabinieri intervened on site to start the investigations. According to what emerged, the pack had already been reported in the days before the roundup service, but the recovery operations had so far been unsuccessful.
It is a very bad thing what happened to this seventy-four year old man, I do not understand how it is possible that stray dogs can roam freely without controls. I hope that the authorities do something about it, because it is truly unacceptable.
