ROME—At least 14 people died and a child was seriously injured on Sunday when a cable car linking Italy’s Lake Maggiore with a nearby mountain plunged 20 meters (66 feet) to the ground, local officials and rescuers said.
The Stresa-Mottarone cable car takes tourists and locals from the town on Lake Maggiore, almost 1,400 meters (4,593 feet) above sea level to the top of the Mottarone mountain in 20 minutes.
