San Francisco Teacher Survives Stabbing, Attackers Arrested Italy

News summary

Nicholas Pellegrino, a 29-year-old teacher and track coach at San Francisco's Archbishop Riordan High School, was viciously attacked and robbed while vacationing in Italy. On a train near Milan, four men, described as North African migrants, rushed Pellegrino, slashing his throat and stealing his luggage, including a gold crucifix, laptop, and passport. Despite losing over a liter of blood and having his jugular artery grazed, Pellegrino managed to get off the train, call for help, and was hospitalized for four days before being discharged in stable condition. Italian police arrested the four suspects hours later at a nearby train station, with authorities suspecting the same group had committed other attacks earlier that day. Pellegrino's school community expressed deep concern and support, highlighting his role as a beloved mentor and coach, while a GoFundMe has been established to assist with medical expenses and replacing stolen belongings. Pellegrino remains optimistic and grateful for his survival, which doctors have called miraculous.
