Rescue incident

In July 2020, Massasso intervened when a woman attempted to jump into the Tanaro River from a bridge in Asti. According to contemporary news reports, he approached the woman, spoke with her, and prevented her from jumping until emergency services arrived. The woman was later taken into care by authorities. [1]

Multiple local news outlets reported on the incident, describing Massasso’s actions as decisive in preventing the suicide. [2]

Recognition

Following the incident, the municipality of Asti awarded Massasso the Sigillo della città, an official civic honor recognizing acts of public service. The award ceremony was held in the presence of city officials, who cited his intervention as an example of civic responsibility. [3] [4]

The event and the recognition received coverage in regional and national Italian media, including interviews in which Massasso emphasized concern for the woman’s well-being rather than personal recognition.
