A reckless maneuver, followed by a violent impact. A 14-year-old girl is now hospitalized in serious condition in Naples after being hit by a motorcycle late yesterday evening in Avellino , near the Air Campania terminal.

The young woman, a resident of Mercogliano, was spending the evening with some friends when she was hit head-on by the two-wheeler.

The rush to the hospital and the emergency transfer

The alarm was raised immediately. Emergency medical services transported the fourteen-year-old girl in critical condition to the nearby Moscati Hospital in Avellino. Her condition immediately appeared critical due to a severe head injury and a compound fracture of the femur, as well as several other injuries throughout her body. Shortly after 1:00 AM, doctors at the Irpinia hospital then arranged for her emergency transfer by air ambulance to the Santobono pediatric hospital in Naples, which specializes in complex trauma.

The motorcycle driver, a 25-year-old man, was also injured in the crash. His condition, however, is not considered to be particularly serious.

The findings and the shocking testimony

State Police officers responded to the scene of the accident and began an investigation to reconstruct the exact circumstances of the accident. At this time, investigators are ruling out the possibility that the accident was related to a crazy motorcycle race.

However, weighing on the motorcyclist's position is the weighty testimony of a passerby, who reported having clearly seen the motorbike wheelie on one wheel just moments before hitting the minor.

The investigations and the video surveillance footage

The 25-year-old motorcyclist has already been charged with road traffic injuries. To confirm the witness's version and shed full light on the details of the accident, officers are reviewing and analyzing footage from public and private surveillance cameras in the area of ​​the bus terminal. The tapes could prove crucial in determining the young driver's exact responsibilities.
