Castaldi had taken a taxi license for some years and had returned from Milan the previous day after a service. He was a robust, lively man who loved company. Always available and talkative, he had two twenty-year-old children in Lombardy, but he had found a partner in Versilia with whom he was very close, also with two grown children.
Nothing foreshadowed the tragedy that took place early in the morning. The doctor could not help but ascertain the death and the body was taken to the morgue of the “Versilia” hospital, probably awaiting an autopsy. The shock partner also had to seek medical attention. The news spread with great disbelief to the airfield and in the dock, among Castaldi's colleagues, arousing immediate amazement and grief.

Eboli: Runner Francesco Gioviale falls from a cliff at the last km of the trail: found dead the next day
June 26, 2022
"I am very worried, my friend is much stronger than me, he runs much faster ... he should have been here for a while ... But he isn't here." About 6 pm. Awarding of the “Trail dei Monti Ebolitani”. One of the runners who has to get on the podium has a glassy face. He arrived at the race - one of the most popular in this part of the Salerno area - with a dear training partner of his. They left the car near the street and then left, along with about 150 athletes. But the rest is the story of a tragedy that at first no one noticed. And it took a while to understand that something bad had happened to Francesco Gioviale, 47, an esteemed doctor from Salerno. When no one saw him in the evening, the alarm was given to the police and the searches started. That went on all night and on Sunday morning, around five o'clock, the man's body was spotted at the end of a cliff about a hundred meters deep, in the locality of Ernice, in an area where the regulation of the event recommended caution. It is a stretch of the route that the organizers had marked as a "red zone".
The runner would have slipped (but the hypothesis of illness is not excluded), while, in sixth position during the race, he was at the last kilometer. He would have rolled downstairs and died following the fall. No one witnessed the accident and if the searches were directed to the most inaccessible part it was because someone had seen it speeding by at the fourteenth kilometer: shortly before Ernice. The body was found by the technicians of the Alpine and Speleological Rescue of Campania together with the volunteers of the Rescue Montano Dedalo of Giffoni Valle Piana (Salerno). An autopsy will be arranged. But Francesco's family members are destroyed. And it is not excluded, they would have reported to some acquaintances seen at the mortuary, that they can take legal action.

He dies of an illness in the neighbors' pool. They find the body after hours
June 22, 2022
An illness struck him while he was bathing in the neighbors' pool. To find the body of Massimo Moscioni, 56 years old from Passignano sul Trasimeno, was a worker who had to take care of masonry work in the cottage of the victim's acquaintances in Lisciano Niccone.
Friends had authorized him to use the swimming pool in their absence. The alarm went off in the late morning yesterday, but unfortunately the death had already occurred several hours ago, about twenty according to what could be reconstructed, and as it emerged from the inspection on the body carried out on the spot by the coroner Anna Maria Verdelli. The carabinieri of the Tuoro station arrived on the spot and started the investigations useful to reconstruct the picture of the affair.
It would seem that the last to see Moscioni alive was the caretaker of the farmhouse on Monday afternoon, it is possible that shortly after the victim immersed himself in water where an illness caused him a cardiac arrest and then drowning. According to the reconstruction of the facts, the man was alone in the pool at the time of the incident, the illness left him no way out. A tragic fate.
A clear picture evidently for the deputy prosecutor Giuseppe Petrazzini who therefore did not order the autopsy, considering the inspection carried out on the spot by the coroner sufficient, the body will therefore be returned to family members for the funeral in these hours.

Tourist from Turate dies on the beach in Rimini: perhaps an illness
June 23, 2022
When they noticed that man, lying in the water, it was too late. Thus died - on a sunny beach in Rimini - a 72-year-old man living in Turate. He was the victim, in all probability, of a heart attack while walking on the shoreline.
It happened around 16.20 at Bagno 104 on Viale Regina Margherita, between the hamlets of Rivazzurra and Marebello, one of the most popular with tourists. The man was on vacation with his sister and, according to initial findings, he was suffering from heart disease. According to the investigations carried out so far, no one has seen what happened and the circumstances of the possible illness. To notice the body lying in the water, not far from the shore, were the rescue sailors, who stationed in large numbers in this period to intervene in case of drowning.
And it was they who immediately took action, taking him to the beach where they gave first aid, starting the resuscitation maneuvers then continued - in vain - by the 118 health workers who arrived on the spot with an ambulance and a self-medicated person.
But there was nothing to be done. The circumstances of the event, the previous pathologies and the fact that no one noticed a person in difficulty in the water, would suggest - as mentioned - a sudden illness while walking in the water near the shore. A plausible hypothesis, but to be confirmed.
