Tourist Killed in Freak Statue Accident on Vacation in Italy

A young tourist was killed in a freak accident in Naples, Italy earlier this week as her boyfriend watched helplessly.

Chiara Jaconis, 30, died several days after a metal statue toppled without warning from a nearby building and knocked her unconscious on Sept. 15 in the city’s Spanish Quarters. Jaconis was headed to the airport with her boyfriend, 29-year-old Livio Rousseau. In graphic footage reviewed by The New York Post, both can be seen wheeling their luggage in the moments before the incident.
