Tragedy struck during a family holiday in Italy when a woman, Margherita Lega, lost her life in a cable car accident. The 41-year-old was with her two young children and husband when the unfortunate incident occurred in the Anzasca Valley of the Italian Alps. It was a heartbreaking scene as emergency services were called in to retrieve Margherita's body from the ravine, with the help of a helicopter.
According to reports, Margherita was loading luggage onto the ski lift, which was not meant for passengers, when her clothing got caught in the machine. In an instant, the lift turned on and started moving, dragging Margherita over the cliff edge. She held on for dear life, but couldn't hold her weight for long and ultimately fell to her death, in front of her horrified children.
The family was on their way to their cabin on the Drocala mountain pasture when the tragedy struck. Despite the efforts of emergency services, Margherita's life could not be saved. Her body was eventually located deep in the valley and technicians were lowered from a helicopter to retrieve it. The cable car facility has been closed while authorities investigate the incident.
Margherita was a teacher from the city of Trento and her shocking death has left the community in mourning. The mayor of Calasca Castiglione, Silvia Tipaldi, expressed her condolences to the family and stated that the entire town was in shock. She also mentioned that the helicopter arrived on the scene to provide assistance, but it was too late.
The cable car, which was meant to transport luggage only, spanned a distance of 1,300ft and was usually operated by two people. It is still unclear if workers were present at the time of the accident. The investigation is ongoing to determine the cause of the tragedy. This incident is a grim reminder of the dangers involved in cable cars, following a similar incident in Antalya, Turkey where one person lost their life and nearly 200 passengers were stranded when a pod malfunctioned mid-air.
The loss of Margherita's life is a devastating event, leaving her family and loved ones in a state of shock and grief. Our hearts go out to them during this difficult time. May her soul rest in peace.
