Daniele Dorizzi, a renowned athlete and symbol of sport and solidarity, was found dead in his apartment in Colà, a district of Lazise. The tragic discovery occurred on Monday, after friends and his partner were unable to reach him throughout the day. The 58-year-old had recently returned from the World Transplant Games in Dresden, where he had won a bronze medal in the team darts competition.
