Lacchiarella, January 29 – The body of a man was found on Wednesday morning, January 28, along a dirt road adjacent to the Sp40 in Lacchiarella, a municipality in the southern hinterland of Milan. The discovery prompted an immediate response from emergency services and law enforcement, who are now conducting investigations into the circumstances surrounding the death.
