Two young Italian men were killed by carbon-monoxide fumes at Ferrara di Monte Baldo near Verona on Tuesday.
The fumes came from a defective wood-burning brazier.
The victims were two 21-year-old students: Luca Bortolaso, born at Soave near Verona and resident at Lonigo near Vicenza, and Alex Ferrari from Arzignano near Vicenza.
Two young women who were with them - from Peschiera del Garda near Verona and Monzambano near Mantua - were not affected because they were sleeping in a different room, heated by an electric fire.
The incident took place in a holiday home.
