A 56-year-old construction worker died after collapsing at a post-earthquake reconstruction site in Tolentino, Macerata province, on Thursday morning. Anastasio Virgillito, originally from Catania but a long-time resident of Matelica (Macerata), lost consciousness and collapsed while working at approximately 11:00 AM. Emergency responders arrived promptly but were unable to save him.
Matelica Mayor Denis Cingolani expressed condolences to the worker’s family and loved ones. “It is always a profound sorrow when a human life is lost,” Cingolani stated. “But this sadness is deepened by the fact it involved a relatively young person and that the tragedy occurred during working hours.”
