A 22-year-old man died in hospital

Doctors said the knife had severed the femoral artery of US-born
Vincenzo Trovato, from Balestrate, about 25km south of the
Sicilian capital.
He is believed to have died of loss of blood.
An autopsy has been ordered.
It is not yet known whether Trovato was on holiday from the USA
or lived in Ballestrate.
Police are viewing CCTV footage in an attempt to identify his
assailant.
