(ANSA) - ROME, FEB 15 - A 16-year-old Italian schoolboy on work experience died in a road crash in Marche Monday night.
Giuseppe Lenoci, from Monte Urano near Fermo, died when a truck being driven by a 37-year-old Fermo-based thermohydraulics firm worker crashed into a tree at Serra de' Conti near Ancona.
Lenoci died instantly while the truck driver was taken to hospital in serious condition.
"We are in mourning, desperate," said a staffer at the training centre in Fermo that found Lenoci his job.
"The family is literally destroyed", said a lawyer.
"We have lost a son," said the head of his school.
After the accident more Italian schools announced strikes against dangers on work experience, after thousands of students protested the accidental death of an 18-year-old high school student, Lorenzo Parelli, on his last day of work experience near Udine last month. (ANSA).
