A 22-year-old local police officer from Mortara (Pavia) has died, having been seriously injured by a shot fired from his gun while he was in the hands of a friend of his. The drama happened in a house in Gropello Cairoli (Pavia), in Lomellina. The policeman was immediately helped by 118 and transported by ambulance to the San Matteo Polyclinic in Pavia. Once he arrived at the hospital, already in very serious condition, he underwent surgery in a desperate attempt to save his life. Unfortunately, the doctors’ efforts were in vain. The 22-year-old died in the operating room.
The Carabinieri of Pavia and Vigevano (Pavia) have started investigations to reconstruct the dynamics of the event. According to a first reconstruction, the young man showed his service pistol to his friend. While the girl was handling the weapon, the shot went off and hit the policeman at her chest level.
