Four people died when a houseboat capsized on Lake Maggiore in northern Italy. They were attending a birthday party on the 16-meter-long boat.
Five people who made it ashore in time were taken to clinics. The public prosecutor's office is now investigating how it could have capsized and why the boat did not return to port. The party was reportedly with the houseboat in the evening about 150 meters from the shore, a local resident told reporters. "We saw that a big thunderstorm was approaching from Milan," the resident said.
