A 24-year-old flight attendant, Aurora Maniscalco, has died after falling from the third-floor balcony of her apartment in Vienna, Austria.
She was at home with her 27-year-old boyfriend, also from Palermo, Italy, at the time of the incident on June 21. Aurora fell approximately 33 feet and later succumbed to her injuries in hospital two days later.
Her boyfriend, reportedly named Elio Bargione, was the one who called emergency services. Aurora worked for Lauda Europe, a low-cost airline under Ryanair, while her partner is also a flight attendant.
Authorities have not ruled out foul play and are examining her phone and personal devices as part of the ongoing investigation.
An autopsy has been requested by her family to clarify the circumstances of her death.
Their lawyer confirmed that legal complaints have been filed in both Vienna and Palermo.
A close friend, Giada Cucina, rejected the possibility of suicide, saying Aurora had dreams of starting volunteer work at an animal shelter.
