A pensioner who was accompanying her nephew to school was hit and killed by a truck this morning in Casatenovo, in the center of Brianza in the province of Lecco.
The 8-year-old boy was unharmed.
The 73-year-old woman, a resident of the area, was trying to cross on the pedestrian crossing in the hamlet of Rogoredo when she was hit by a truck driven by a Spanish driver.
Aid for the woman is in vain.
The little one, expected at school for the resumption of lessons after the holidays, was taken over by some volunteers who rushed to the scene with the police.
The police are investigating the dynamics.
