Car Pulled From Sile River Contains Two Siblings Linked to Earlier Death

Prosecutors have opened an inquiry with no suspects, with autopsies pending to clarify what happened.

Overview

  • Firefighters recovered a submerged car Thursday near the Osteria alla Nea and found the bodies of a 55-year-old woman and a 52-year-old man inside.
  • Authorities identified the pair as siblings from Mirano and the children of a 77-year-old woman found dead in the Sile on October 10.
  • The recovery involved carabinieri and an autogru used to lift the vehicle after searches that began Wednesday evening.
  • Treviso prosecutors opened a case file that currently lists no suspects, and formal identification procedures and autopsies are pending.
