Investigators on Friday said a
CCTV camera on a factory in Rome's Via Salviati district has
filmed possibly the last moments in the life of a 20-year-old
Chinese art student while she was chasing someone Monday.
Police believe Zhang Yao could have been fatally hit by a
train as she was running after the thieves who had just stolen
her bag.
Footage from the CCTV camera reportedly confirmed what Yao
told a friend on the phone shortly before she went missing and
stopped responding to calls - that she was chasing the men who
had snatched her bag.
Yao was possibly hit by a train after she started running on
the trackbed, investigators said.
Forensic experts who have examined her body said her injuries
are compatible with wounds from a violent impact.
