A 75-year-old skier, residing in Milan, lost his life today while skiing in Bormio, in Alta Valtellina. The man, perhaps due to a sudden illness, lost control of his skis and ended up in the nearby forest that runs along the slope.
In the tragic fall, according to the first investigations of the police officers of the Sondrio police station in the rescue service on the white tracks of the locality, the tourist hit his head against a stone. The impact was fatal to him. The rescue efforts of the Areu personnel who arrived on the spot by helicopter were of no use.
