Ten-year-old girl falls from ski-lift

A ten-year-old Czech girl, holidaying in the Austrian Alps, is in hospital after falling from a ski-lift. The girl was sharing a bench with her parents and brother when she slid off it and was left handing by one hand. Although her parents tried to haul her up she slipped and fell from a height of ten metres. The hospital in Tamsweg has refused to disclose information regarding her injuries. The ski centre in Fanningberg where the accident happened has ruled out a security lapse.
