A 71-year-old pensioner from the
town of Chiaverano, near Turin, had his left leg amputated after
he came to the rescue of his two grandchildren, aged 13 and 18,
during yesterday's terror attack on the Promenade des Anglais in
Nice.
Gaetano Moscato, who used to work for Olivetti, is
reportedly being treated at a hospital in Nice.
The gun-toting attacker, identified as Mohamed Lahouaiej
Bouhlel, 31, plowed a truck into crowds celebrating Bastille Day
along the seafront promenade, killing at least 84 people
including 10 children and teens.
