The identities of the victims are yet to be released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While media reports conflict some (likely owing to the translation from Italian to English), it appears that the two ship&#8217;s officers were conferring near the vessel&#8217;s stern ramp when the fifth wheel on a terminal tractor failed and released a trailer it had in tow. The trailer was sent down an incline and crushed the two men, killing one and seriously injuring the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Update &#8211; 21 September 4:30 PM:<\/strong>  We now understand that the fatally injured 2nd officer has been identified as Sr. Antonio Donato (<em>See <\/em>photo above), and that the injured 1st officer remains hospitalized at Salerno with a broken femur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Links to Media Accounts:   <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\"
