Imperia, car crashes off the road in the night: 16-year-old boy dies

A 16-year-old boy died last night after the car in which he was traveling with his father went off the road and fell tens of metres.

It happened in the Molini di Triora area, in the Imperia area. The boy's father is slightly injured.

The dynamics of the accident are not yet clear, except that the car went off the road and fell into a ravine several tens of meters deep. The father was thrown out of the vehicle while the boy remained inside.

Rescue operations began shortly before 2 am. The firefighters were on site and took a long time to go down the cliff and extricate the boy's body from the sheets of metal. The father, in a strong state of shock, was transferred to hospital by helicopter.
