Up-and-coming Italian actor
Domenico Diele was put under house arrest with an ankle bracelet
on Monday after the confirmation of his arrest for aggravated
vehicular homicide after he hit and killed 48-year-old Ilaria
Dilillo early Saturday while driving under the effects of drugs.
The 32-year-old film and television star was said to be
returning from a party in Matera when he ran into Dilillo, who
was riding a moped near the Montecorvino Pugliano motorway exit
near Salerno.
She was on her way home after spending an evening with
friends.
The accident occurred around 2 am local time.
Diele subsequently tested positive for drugs and it also
emerged that his driving licence had been suspended in 2016
following a positive drugs test.
Diele was in the Salerno area for filming for Marco Ponti's
new film 'Una vita spericolata' (A dangerous life).
