Overview

- The victim was identified as 49-year-old Francesco Emanuele Conforti, who died despite resuscitation attempts by Areu 118 medics.
- Witnesses reported a heated argument that turned into a scuffle shortly before the SUV struck Conforti and lightly injured his companion.

- The Lodi Carabinieri are conducting the probe under prosecutor Aurora Stasi, with an autopsy planned next week at Pavia’s forensic institute.
