Daniele Colli has had successful surgery on his broken left arm. He plans to file a criminal complaint while his Nippo-Vini Fantini team is likely to open a civil case in search of compensation following the crash in the finishing straight of stage 6 of the Giro d’Italia that left the Italian rider with a broken arm.

Although the spectator involved in the incident has not been named publicly, reports in the Italian media suggest that his identity has been established locally. Speaking from hospital on Friday, Colli expressed his dismay that the spectator had not contacted him to apologise.

“The police have more or less identified this person, he’s a 30-year-old guy with a passion for photography. He was outside the barriers, he wasn’t accredited and he injured Daniele with the zoom lens of his camera maybe because he was looking at the pictures he had just shot,” Pelosi explained.

“I would say that it deserves a complaint. The fact that he hasn’t apologised aggravates the situation and demonstrates that he’s a person who isn’t worthy of being allowed to get away with it.”
