Italy: Heartbreaking scenes of a cable car that detached in midair and plunged 20 meters (65ft) smashed on the ground, rolled down the mountainside, and nestled into a tree, makes us count our blessings this morning. The Mottarone cable car was making a journey like usual it connects Italy’s Lake Maggiore to a mountain in the Alps, and it’s been said the wires shouldn’t have needed to be replaced until 2029. An investigation is underway as to what could have caused this freak occurrence. 14 people have sadly passed away including two children. Our thoughts and prayers here at IMU Media go out to all the victim’s families and friends.
