Three people died in an accident that occurred near a farm in the countryside of Santa Maria Nuova di Bertinoro, in the province of Forlì.

The car allegedly hit a feed silo, which then collapsed onto the vehicle. According to initial information from the fire brigade, the victims are two brothers and a sister of Moroccan origins. The girl was 18 years old, her little brothers 13 and 10 years old.

Several teams of rescuers and the police were on site to reconstruct the dynamics of the tragedy.

The 18-year-old driving had recently taken the pink sheet, was practicing driving in the square of the farm, where a relative works as a caretaker, and had brought the two younger brothers on board. During a manoeuvre, the car would have hit the silo, over 20 cubic meters large, which then overwhelmed the vehicle, killing the three.
