(ANSA) – BARI, FEB 3 – Boys aged 10-12 have been throwing
themselves in front of moving cars in a so-called ‘planking
challenge’ on social media in the Puglia town of Gallipoli, the
Nuovo Quotidiano di Puglia newspaper reported Wednesday.
As soon as they see drivers turn their lights on they throw
themselves in front of the vehicles, it said.
There are two areas of Gallipoli where the boys have been doing
this: in the historic centre and in Viale Europa, the paper
said.
No boys have so far been hurt. (ANSA).
