A jogger has died in a wave of extreme weather that was battering many parts of Italy on Friday.
The body of the 61-year-old runner was found on Friday in a river in Luvinate, in the northern province of Varese, after he went missing on Thursday.
The man is thought to have been caught in a storm that caused flash floods and landslides in the area.
Seven regions are on 'orange alert' for the wave of torrential rain and sporadic storms - Lombardy, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Tuscany, Lazio, Campania, Basilicata and Sardinia.
Schools in Naples and Livorno were closed on Friday as a result.
