A pedestrian walkway in a housing project in the Italian city of Naples has collapsed, killing two people and injuring a dozen others, Italian media reported on Tuesday.
The collapse overnight involved an extended family, killing a 29-year-old male and a 35-year-old woman, news agency ANSA reported.
The cause is still under investigation.
Authorities evacuated the building where the collapse occurred and blocked the use of the pedestrian walkways in other sections of the so-called “Blue Sail” housing block.
Four others have been demolished and two more are scheduled for demolition.
