A woman died following a fire that broke out in the night on a boat moored in the tourist port “’Marina di Stabia”’, in Castellammare di Stabia (Naples). The woman, 29, born in Rome, worked as a hostess on the boat, and had just returned from an excursion. Tired, she told her friends she wanted to stay aboard for the night before returning home. She died in the flames that enveloped the boat, perhaps from asphyxiation.
The body was recovered by the fire brigade. The prosecutor of the Torre Annunziata prosecutor arrived on the spot and proceeded with the investigations with the soldiers of the Port Authority of Castellammare di Stabia.
According to what was ascertained by the Port Authority of Castellammare di Stabia, led by commander Achille Selleri, the young woman who lost her life as a result of the fire may not have noticed anything. He slept under the blanket and no injuries or burns were found on his body. The fire developed only on the outside of the boat, which then sank.
The young woman, born in the province of Rome, was part of the crew of the boat, a 22-meter sailboat, English, but managed by a company from Gragnano (Naples).
For the identification of the victim, the arrival of family members is expected. The investigators are viewing the images of the numerous cameras that the marina is equipped with, which is extensively guarded and closed to strangers, to check if anyone has approached the boat during the night.
