The toll from the road accident which occurred on the evening of December 24th along provincial road 30 between San Severo and Torremaggiore, in the Foggiano area, is one dead and one injured. For reasons currently under investigation, an Audi collided with an ambulance that was taking a woman injured at home in Torremaggiore by a firecracker to hospital in San Severo. The passenger of the car, a Bulgarian citizen, died in the impact. The driver of the vehicle, also Bulgarian, was slightly injured. Obviously the fear of the four operators on board the ambulance for what happened was strong.
