12-year-old Israeli girl dies in bus accident at French ski station
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleLYON, France — A 12-year-old Israeli girl died in a bus accident at a ski station in France’s eastern Savoie region overnight, local authorities say.
Fourteen other Israeli tourists were on the bus, which reversed down a slope before tipping onto its side in the town of Belleville.
The others suffered slight injuries, and two of them were taken to the hospital, says Bruno Charlot, the deputy prefect in Albertville, the nearest large town.
The accident occurred shortly before 1 a.m. (0000 GMT) as the group was leaving their hotel to go to the airport.
