AI-generated summary
The actor Davide Iacopini was the victim of an attack on October 5 in Rome, being thrown to the ground from a scooter by people in a black minicar.
Actor Davide Iacopini underwent emergency head surgery again, in critical condition after being thrown to the ground from his scooter by the so-called black minicar gang. The actor's state of health worsened over the weekend and on Friday night the doctors at the San Camillo hospital in Rome were forced to take him to the operating room. The operation performed "by the UOC Neurosurgery team directed by Prof. Riccardo Ricciuti was perfectly successful", the hospital announced, underlining however that the actor remains hospitalized in intensive care. "The patient continues the postoperative course with good overall stability of vital parameters, compatible with the severity of the initial post-traumatic injuries", as stated in the medical bulletin. The prognosis remains strictly confidential.
Meanwhile, the work of the investigators continues, looking for clues that lead to identifying the people responsible not only for the attack on the Roman actor but also, probably, for six other similar cases that occurred in the capital, in the Monteverde Vecchio area. "It takes time but we will get to the perpetrators", said the investigators who are examining many cameras present in the area where the attacks were reported. After the case of Davide Iacopini, attacked in the street on 5 October, other similar cases have emerged: at least six, according to investigators who are collecting testimonies and stories. The victims reported that they had been hit by a young man who was traveling with another person in a black electric minicar. The car would be the same, in color and model, presumably stolen after 8.30pm last Monday, 5 October, from a lawyer. According to what was verified by the investigators, coordinated by the deputy prosecutor Ambrogio Cassiani, the vehicle would also have been available to the professional's two sons, one of whom was still a minor.
To continue with their investigations, investigators have opened a case for attempted murder. At the moment the effort, for which it is necessary to carefully examine all the cameras in the area, is to find the license plate of the car used in the attacks. The investigators' hypothesis is that those responsible live in the neighborhood because all the cases occurred in streets not far from each other, in the Monteverde Vecchio area. According to some testimonies, one of the young men responsible was of slim build, with blond crew cut hair, and during the escape he lost a hat, which he collected and made available to those investigating.
