The specialized worker, originally from Campania, died at the construction site of the new logistics hub at the age of 75 Amazon in Jesi, due to a sudden illness whose causes are being ascertained. It happened shortly after 7:30.
The elderly man, employed as a crane operator for an external company, suddenly collapsed while he was working from the ground at the foot of a crane. He was immediately rescued by his companions, and then by the 118 paramedics, but in vain.
It appears that the worker had medical certifications to operate as a crane operator, despite his advanced age.
"What happened is terrible. Our thoughts and deepest condolences go to the family of the person involved. We remain at the disposal of the competent authorities for any need," Amazon said.
The mayor of Jesi, Lorenzo Fiordelmondo, and the municipal administration, in a press release, expressed condolences for the sudden death of the worker. The note states that “there were immediate contacts with the Amazon Logical srl Group and with the police forces who collected the elements useful for the reconstruction of the event.
This is a circumstance classified by the competent authority as a death due to natural causes. The man was operating a vehicle from the ground when he was struck by a sudden illness. Our deepest condolences to the family of the person involved”.
Condolences also from the president and all the members of the administrative and control bodies of the company Interporto Marche spa who in a note express "solidarity and closeness to the family of the worker who died today in the construction site area adjacent to the Interporto.
