Night murder in Bergamo Costa Volpino. Sara Centelleghe, 18, was stabbed to death by an attacker while she was at her home at Via Nazionale 142 near City Hall. The victim would have turned 19 in November. After being struck repeatedly with a kitchen knife in the upper body, he left his home, leaving drops of blood on the stairs (where footprints of his bare left foot were also found), and collapsed lifeless on the ground a short time later. It appears that the young woman was at home with a friend and then there was a third person who escaped. Neighbor’s statement According to a reconstruction given by a neighbor to local Araberara magazine, the girl had gone out to buy drinks from the vending machine downstairs, leaving the 18-year-old alone in the house. When he returned, he found Centelleghe covered in blood and called for help. Bloody footprints can also be seen on the stairs leading to the apartment. “We were going to sleep. I heard screaming and called 112 and my wife. We opened the door and saw blood on the stairs. When my husband went upstairs, he found a girl asking for help because her friend had died. There were bare footprints leading down to the garage,” the woman explains. Investigation At the scene, Bergamo Deputy prosecutor Giampiero Golluccio is on duty, coordinating the investigations of the Carabinieri’s investigation unit together with Chief Prosecutor Maurizio Romanelli. This does not appear to be a robbery. The investigation focuses on the young woman’s circle of friends. In fact, “a series of checks aimed at gathering clues to identify the criminals” are ongoing. Investigators state that “at the moment, the possibility that the murder matured in the context of the victim’s family is excluded.” Who was Sara Centelleghe? The 18-year-old girl lived with her mother on the third floor of a building on Via Nazionale in the Portici district. Her parents had separated. Centelleghe wrote an affectionate message to her mother on social media. She posted: “A girl’s first love will always be her mother.” The 18-year-old attended the Socio-Health Institute at Ivan Piana in Lovere and spent most of her time with her friends.
