An Italian woman has died in a
building collapse in Marseille earlier this week, her father
confirmed Wednesday night.
Simona Carpignano, 30, from Taranto, had been missing since
Wednesday.
"Sadly, the news is correct," said the father.
Carpignano, who spoke fluent Chinese and Arabic, had gone to
Marseille to study and work.
Taranto Archbishop Msgr Filippo Santoro sent his condolences
saying the Church was "close" to the grief-stricken family.
