A 65-year-old hunter died of his
wounds in hospital Friday three days after being gored by three
wild boar he kept in a pen outside his home near Forlì in
Romagna, the local edition of the Resto del Carlino newspaper
said.
Giuseppe Capece, originally from Potenza in Basilicata, was
feeding the animals when the sudden attack came, led by the two
males.
He suffered serious injuries to the arms and legs.
Taken to the Bufalini Hospital in Cesena, Capece's condition
initially appeared not concerning but then the situation
worsened after an operation on Thursday.
The man found the three board a year ago and decided to keep
them.
A local court recently ordered them to be taken from him and
they were set to be taken to an animal shelter in these days.
