Anna Elisa Fontana, the 48-year-old set on fire by her 52-year-old partner Onofrio Bronzolino, on the night between Friday and Saturday in a house in the center of Pantelleria, didn't make it.
The woman was hospitalized in the intensive care unit of the Civic hospital in Palermo, where she arrived in desperate conditions with burns on 70% of her body.
The man is also in hospital, guarded by the police. Hit by a return flame, he could lose his sight.
The investigations are conducted by the Carabinieri of the provincial command of Trapani coordinated by the prosecutor's office.
