Turbolenza severa: assistenti di volo feriti a bordo di un A319 diretto a Verona Villafranca
Mercoledì 3 gennaio, l’aeromobile A319 marche G-DBCA proveniente da Londra Gatwick, durante la discesa verso l’aeroporto di Verona Villafranca, incontrava una turbolenza severa, a seguito della quale un assistente di volo riportava lesioni gravi e altri due lesioni di varia gravità in via di definitivo accertamento.
Il velivolo atterrava regolarmente all’aeroporto di destinazione.
L’ANSV ha aperto l’inchiesta di sicurezza classificando l’evento come incidente, in considerazione della tipologia delle lesioni riportate, in linea con quanto previsto dall’Annesso 13 ICAO e dal Regolamento (UE) n. 996/2010.

I did not immediately see an English language button on the website.

So next check would be to take a look at the website of the regulator. They have an english version of their website Enac - Info in English . This does not have a News chapter. And no mention elsewhere it seems. The site has a security but not a safety reporting option.

You certainly would expect a LOC event to be reported and published.
From Google Translate:

"Severe turbulence: wounded flight attendants on board an A319 bound for Verona Villafranca
On Wednesday 3 January, the aircraft A319, G-DBCA brands from London Gatwick, during the descent to Verona Villafranca airport, encountered a severe turbulence, following which a flight attendant reported serious injuries and two other injuries of various gravity being definitively ascertained.
The aircraft landed regularly at the destination airport.
The ANSV has opened the safety investigation by classifying the event as an accident, in consideration of the type of injuries reported, in line with the provisions of the ICAO Annex 13 and Regulation (EU) no. 996/2010."
