Two women aged 64 and 91 died last night due to a fire probably triggered by the short circuit of an electric heater in a house in Vicopisano (Pisa).
The flames started in the bedroom where the older woman slept.
The other victim is the woman who cared for her, of Ukrainian nationality: the carer, from what has been reconstructed, tried to save the 91-year-old but was overwhelmed by the smoke.
Firefighters, paramedics and police attended the scene.
