Ho visto una Associated Press che dice che giovedì è caduto un elicottero a Sestriere su una futura pista di sci olimpica. Nessuno si è fatto male. Qualcuno sa che elicottero era e soprattutto di chi? E che genere di lavoro stava facendo?
Questa l'AP:
A helicopter crashed Thursday on the slalom ski slope for the
2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, injuring the pilot and a worker on the ground.
The helicopter was ferrying a load of light poles to illuminate the slope in Sestriere at night during the Feb. 10-26 Olympics, said Claudio Agnese,
spokesman for the management arm of the organizing committee for the games.
Neither the pilot nor the worker appeared to be seriously injured and were taken to a hospital in Turin, Agnese said.
"The helicopter was hovering very close to the ground, due to the work
required," he said, adding that officials will investigate the crash.
Sestriere's mayor told the ANSA news agency he saw the crash from a window at city hall.
"We saw it spin like a top and then crash to the ground. Then there were flames and a tall column of smoke," Mayor Andrea Maria Colarelli said.
