Ventured by the dogs of a relative to whom he had gone to visit. It happened in the early afternoon of today in the Marinaro village of San Giorgio, a populous hamlet of the municipality of Gioiosa Marea, where an elderly man, born in 1938, would have been attacked by two German shepherds owned by the son -in -law. The elderly man seems to be outside the joint home, when the two dogs would have attacked him by throwing it on the ground and venturing it into different parts of the body. Due to the deep injuries sustained, some serious, the victim was urgently transported to the “Barone Romeo” hospital in Patti, only a few kilometers away from the hamlet of San Giorgio.
Arriving in the emergency room of the hospital in via Mazzini aboard an ambulance from 118, the eighty -seven -year -old would have been immediately transferred to the helicopter to the “Gaetano Martino” Policlinico in Messina, where he would have been hospitalized in the plastic surgery department. To arouse concern the profound wounds found at the height of the skull, a circumstance that prompted the medical staff to maintain the reserved prognosis.
