Wanna Marchi Says She Was Hit in Milan Crosswalk, Declines Hospital Care

Her account appears in a social video without any official corroboration released.

Overview

  • Marchi posted a video describing being struck on a pedestrian crossing in via del Ricordo on Wednesday afternoon while walking her dog, Charlotte.
  • She showed facial bruising and abrasions and said gravel embedded in her hands and face caused severe pain.
  • Marchi recounted confusion after the impact, recalling her name but not her address as ambulance staff contacted her family from her phone.
  • She said she refused transport to a hospital, citing trauma linked to her husband’s death at that facility.
  • In the same video, she and her daughter blamed obstructed visibility from bad parking for the incident, thanked first-arriving helper Davide Lacerenza, said the driver stopped and called for help, and stated they would not seek damages; she also promoted her new book.
