Left to die in the dark: hit-and-run driver kills Senegalese cyclist in Mesagne

A silent tragedy on the roads of Apulia

Another road victim, another case of indifference. In Mesagne (Brindisi), a young Senegalese migrant was hit and killed while cycling at night. He was wearing a reflective vest, but that didn’t stop the driver who hit him from fleeing without offering help.

The betrayal of duty: hit-and-run crime

According to initial reports, no one stopped to help. This act of omission of aid is not only a crime under the law, but a serious moral failure. Police are working to identify the hit-and-run driver and bring them to justice.

An invisible life, a cruel fate

Like many migrants, the victim was likely returning home after work. His safety gear was visible, he was following the rules. But it wasn’t enough. He remained invisible to a society that often refuses to look.

Hunt for the driver: speak up if you know

Authorities are asking for witnesses and any video footage that might help. Even the smallest clue could be vital. Justice is not just for the courts—it’s a promise to the victim and a sign that we still care.
