Grandfather and 7-year-old grandson hit in Rome, serious - News.com.au. Yesterday's accident occurred a few days after that of Sister Flora Di Guglielmo, who was hit by a car on Saturday in Largo Brancaccio, in the center of Rome, and later died in hospital.
Investigations into the dynamics are underway by the local police of the II Sapienza Group. It would seem that grandfather and grandson were crossing near the stripes.
