A 37-year-old worker died today on a construction site in Mugnano of Naples, municipality in the northern area of the Neapolitan hinterland. The man, according to initial reconstructions, was working on a road construction site in via Nenni, when, at a certain point, he felt ill, collapsed to the ground and died shortly afterwards. It is not yet clear what happened. The Carabinieri immediately arrived on site and started the investigation of the case, supported by the ASL workplace prevention and safety office, the medical examiner and the prosecutor on duty from the Naples North Aversa prosecutor’s office who ordered the seizure of the body for the subsequent autopsy. .
Hypotheses on the causes of death
According to initial reconstructions, it seems that the man may have been the victim of an unexpected accident cardiovascular arrest. But only further clinical investigations will be able to clarify the causes of death. The company was carrying out excavation work for the laying of a pipe. From initial investigations, the victim appears to have been employed regularly.
Just today, the construction workers’ unions proclaimed an 8-hour strike, after the death of 63-year-old worker Antonio Russo, victim of an accident on the subway construction site, in the tunnel that connects Capodichino to Poggioreale. In Piazza del Plebiscito this morning a sheet was spread with a black silhouette, with bloody yellow helmets, to symbolize the protest against deaths at work. The death of the 37-year-old in Mugnano, in any case, it should be noted, cannot be traced back to an accident at work, despite having occurred in the workplace. The judiciary’s investigations will clarify the circumstances and causes of death.
