The brothers were found dead in each other's arms in tall grass beneath an embankment, according to multiple reports. The incident occurred while they were training their pet birds ahead of the hunting season. Their father Giorgio discovered them after they failed to return home and could not be reached by phone.
Paramedics attempted to resuscitate the twins, but they were pronounced dead at the scene. The twins were a month away from their 23rd birthdays. Authorities have launched an investigation into the incident.
They were two exceptional young men who worked with great dedication and were always extremely kind.
It's a tragedy that is very hard to come to terms with.
Francesco and Giacomo were our strength, our present and our future.
They were born together and they left together, united by a bond that went beyond brotherhood.
