It may not be attributable to natural causes, i.e. to a probable illness, the death of Fabio Correalethe 37-year-old from Crotone who died last Sunday morning shortly after carrying out unloading work in the hold of a ship docked at the quay of the industrial port of Crotone. The deputy prosecutor Pasquale Festa, the person in charge of the investigations conducted by the Port Authority, has in fact opened a case for manslaughter which for now is against unknown persons.
The investigative hypothesis is that it may have been a death that occurred during the work phases and not a death from natural causes as was initially thought. A reconstruction of the facts that began to take shape after the medical examiner appointed by the Crotone Prosecutor’s Office carried out the autopsy on the worker’s body on Wednesday. Correale, an employee of the Recycling company specializing in port work, had finished his activities in the hold when he died and was apparently talking to some colleagues when he suddenly collapsed to the ground. Immediately after the incident, the ship, the crane used for the unloading operations and the company’s construction site were seized. The 37-year-old was not married and was preparing to join the fire brigade where he had already worked intermittently.
