the last story from the sea shortly before the accident

The last photo off the coast of Posillipo, with Villa Volpicelli well framed and the music of Un Posto al Sole, which is set there, in the background. The snapshot is of a few minutes before the tragedy that will occur shortly thereafter and which will lead to the death of Cristina Frazzica, 31 years old, the young woman with a passion for nature who was overwhelmed and killed by a boat. The person driving the vessel did not stop after running over her, and there is now a search for the vessel in all the moorings in Naples, and in particular between Mergellina and Borgo Marinari, where she could have landed given the proximity to the coast.

The impact occurred yesterday afternoon: Cristina and another boy, aged 23, they had rented a kayak to row in the stretch of sea that runs along Cape Posillipo, one of the most renowned and after every day many citizens and tourists dedicate themselves to this sport. The exact dynamics of the tragedy are not clear: the fact is that a boat less than half a mile from the coast would have arrived at great speed and ended up hitting the small orange canoe on which the two boys were, and then continuing its journey. navigation, perhaps without realizing what happened. The 23-year-old who was with her was saved: even though he was practically unharmed, he was found terrified at sea. The same sea where the Coast Guard, aboard a patrol boat, found the girl’s lifeless body shortly after. The autopsy will now shed light on what happened, while investigations continue to find the person responsible. A camera from Villa Rosebery, residence of the President of the Republic, is pointed directly at the sea: and it is not excluded that he may have filmed details that are fundamental for the investigations.
