10 September 2020High altitude tragedy this morning in Valtellina.
A person, whose personal details and place of residence are not yet known, died after falling shortly before 10 am from the Disgrazia, a peak of about 3600 meters in the territory between Valmalenco and Buglio in Monte (Sondrio).
The alarm was raised by the victim's two climbing companions, recovered unscathed by the Sondrio financial police Sagf, who intervened with the Alpine Rescue of the VII Delegation of Valtellina and Valchiavenna.
The Areu helicopters, which took off from the Caiolo airfield and from Bergamo, are now hindered by the thick fog in the recovery of the corpse, even if they are helped to identify the precise point of the tragedy by the companions of the mountaineer who fell down several meters before crashing on the rocks.
The military of the Sagf, delegated by the Prosecutor of Sondrio in the reconstruction of the incident, collaborate with the carabinieri of the Chiesa barracks in Valmalenco (Sondrio), to shed light on the exact dynamics of the tragic accident, which took place today just before 10 am.
