A dramatic accident occurred this morning in Teano, in the province of Caserta, where a 68-year-old farmer was crushed to death by his tractor.
The man, well-known in the area, was working on his land in the San Lieno area when, for reasons still under investigation, the agricultural vehicle overturned, overwhelming him.
Emergency services arrived immediately, but all attempts to revive the victim were in vain. The following also arrived on the scene: firefighters to support operations. Authorities are investigating to reconstruct the exact circumstances of the accident and determine any responsibilities.
What happened in Teano is truly tragic; it's beyond belief how such an accident could happen with a tractor. We hope the authorities will clarify what happened to prevent similar incidents in the future.
