Found dead a 58-year-old man, G. D., in an apartment on via XXIV Maggio e Messina. The workers who were working on the facade of the building noticed a lifeless body and smelled a bad odor. They immediately called the firefighters and 118.

The 118 operators could only confirm his death, which had occurred a few days earlier. The man apparently lived alone, was known in the area, but no one had seen him for a while.
