There is a young Italian woman
among those missing following the collapse of two buildings in
Marseille on Monday, French media said Tuesday amid reports it
may be a 30-year-old from Taranto.
Simona Carpignano lived in one of the buildings that
collapsed in Marseille, sources said Tuesday.
Carpignano went to the French city some six months ago to
join a dear friend of hers who had found work there, the sources
said.
A waiter in a nearby bar, who knew the woman well, was shown
on TV in tears.
"She was a brilliant girl, she was studying here with us," he
told a reporter present.
Eight or more people are missing after the disaster.
