Latina Teen Dies After Fifth-Floor Fall as Police Pursue All Leads

Investigators have not verified reports of a voluntary act possibly tied to a recent remedial-exam failure.

Overview

  • The 17-year-old fell from the balcony of a fifth-floor apartment on Via don Luigi Sturzo, a side street off Via Isonzo in Latina.
  • Emergency responders took her to Santa Maria Goretti Hospital, where she underwent surgery before admission to intensive care in critical condition.
  • She died overnight after her condition deteriorated, according to hospital reports cited by local media.
  • Police from the Questura pontina's Squadra Volante are reconstructing events and state that no scenario is excluded at this stage.
  • No farewell notes have been found, while some reports describe an unconfirmed hypothesis of a voluntary act possibly linked to a second failure in a remedial exam.
