The conditions of Matteo L. – a 44-year-old from Lonato – the protagonist of the frightening crash on Saturday afternoon on the Sp25, in that stretch of Via Mancino, in front of the cemetery of the town where he lives, are still serious: riding his Harley-Davidson motorbike, he collided head-on with a Volkswagen Golf traveling in the opposite direction, towards Padenghe. Extremely violent impact: he was thrown from the two-wheeler and fell disastrously onto the asphalt, unconscious.
Rescued by paramedics and a Garda Emergenza ambulance, he was transferred to the car park of the nearby shopping centre, where the helicopter that took off from Brescia was waiting for him: intubated, he was urgently transported to the Civil Service, hospitalised. in code red in hospital. He is currently in the intensive care unit, with a guarded prognosis and not yet out of danger: he has already undergone surgery and suffered significant trauma to his head as well as various fractures.
Local police investigations
The driver of the Golf, 59 years old, was subjected to alcohol and drug tests as per practice: the findings were entrusted to the Local Police of Lonato. The judiciary has opened a case for road injuries: the vehicles involved in the crash have already been seized. The dynamics are being examined by investigators, but it seems that the cause of the accident was a partial invasion of the lane: the Golf would have swerved due to a slowdown on the road to Padenghe, but any responsibility remains to be demonstrated.
While waiting for good news from the hospital, the whole country is cheering for the hospitalized 44-year-old. Even the friends of the Bar Sport in Lonato, which he often frequents: “We are close to your family and we expect you soon and stronger than before”, says Simone Bertelli, owner of the place together with his wife Daniela Serina.
