An Italian student from Battipaglia
in Puglia died in a New York college on the night of
Thursday-Friday, a day before turning 18, the victim of an
apparent heart attack.
Claudio Mandia had been studying English and training to become
a manager, his lifetime ambition, at the college, his family
said.
His family, who make frozen pizzas and export them around the
world including America, said he had been subjected to
"unimaginable treatment" by the college and would take
"appropriate action" once an investigation has reached its
conclusion.
They also said doctors must explain why he died, since he was
"very healthy".
