Castenaso, drunk, runs over and kills 19 years in the strips

BOLOGNA. Fatal accident Thursday night, around 7.30pm, at Castenaso in the province of Bologna. Irene Boruzzi, 19, died after being run over, while she was in the pedestrian crossing, by a car driven by a 45-year-old girl who was positive for alcoltest after an initial assessment carried out by the police. The man was arrested and placed under house arrest for street murder.

“The girl was running when the accident happened. It is a fact that draws our attention.” Then the mayor of Castenaso Carlo Gubellini comments on the death of the young woman. “Via Frullo is one of the streets that lead to the town. The girl ran and was on the slopes. She was the second-degree granddaughter of the founder of a well-known bakery in Castenaso, where his mother still works. “

To shoot down and kill Irene was the driver of an Opel Astra, a 45-year-old Bolognese, Davide Melillo. The impact was very violent: the young woman first hit the glass of the Astra, breaking it, then she was thrown tens of meters away. At that point, the road is well lit. The 118 health workers, who immediately went to Via Frullo together with the doctor, tried in vain to revive the girl, but her heart did not beat again: the injuries suffered were too serious. Melillo was immediately subjected to an alcohol test and, from an initial examination, it was found that he had a blood alcohol level four times higher than the allowed limit (2.18 grams per liter). You have a history of driving under the influence of alcohol and resisting a public official.

“Now it is systematic to apply house arrest to detainees. But this is not so much, and only this, the point: we are witnessing the demolition of everything that had been done to combat drunkenness in the street. ‘Homicide on the road is overcome, with the cross-granting of generic mitigating measures and plea bargaining, from the point of view of the penalties for those responsible’ ‘is the comment of Giordano Biserni, President of Asaps, an association of Polstrada supporters, in the face of the tragic accident. “After a first phase in which we had seen important sentences, now the sentences are gradually being lowered and we are returning to previous levels. The attention curve on this topic is going down. We are in the ‘stripping chain’ of contrasting street drunkenness. And nobody talks about it. ”
